Yes indeed. Nice photo, Bruce. The DA*50-135 is a very good performer. There's a bit of corner/edge falloff when wide open at 135mm but I don't find it objectionable and it's easily correctable. I love the fact that it's both internal focus and zoom ... doesn't change length in use at all.
The only negative aspect for me is that it's large and heavy .. I only carry such a big lens when I know I will want to be using them. In that respect it's much like the Olympus ZD 50-200 I was looking at yesterday for the L1: a marvelous performer but not a casual "have it with me just in case" size and weight.
