Hi John

Would that be the FA 28-105/4-5.6 Power zoom? I've yet to try it on digital.

Regards,

John

My lightweight outfit is the *ist-D with the kit 18-55.

The 16-50 has been on the K10D just about all the time.
But as that also has the grip (with a second battery)
I don't find the weight too much of a problem.  In any
case, it's a whole lot lighter than the FA* 80-200 :-)

Mind you, I might have to carry the 16-50 more often.
I happened to take a couple of near-identical shots,
one with the 16-50, and one with the old FA 28-105.
It was very noticeable that the 16-50 is *much* better
than the 28-105 (both lenses at 50mm, f5.6, so that's
not really too much of a surprise).
