I agree with you about the FA20-35: it effectively replaced my A24, A28 and A35 lenses, as well as the DA16-45.
The 21 and 43 Limiteds go beyond it, however. For the situation you mention, I would take the Panasonic L1 with its Leica 14-50/2.8-3.5 lens now. That lens is just about on par with the quality of the Limiteds, albeit a bit bulkier. Heresy, eh? ;-) Godfrey On Sep 27, 2007, at 12:13 PM, Steve Desjardins wrote: > A man after my own heart. > > As much as I am a fan of primes, on this trip my wife and I were with > 10 college students and my job was not to take pictures.
