Classic example. I'm going away next week and debated taking the DA14 2.8 but I know I won't lug it around all day. Instead, I have the DS, the DA40, and the FA20-35 (which is very light). Heavy lenses are like condoms: they're only good if you actually use them.

I have petty well decided that the bulky high quality faster lenses I leave home don't get very good results compared to the smaller lesser quality slower lenses I carry with me. Which is why I sold my A20/2.8 in favor of the DA21/3.2. And while I obviously lost some speed, I am not sure I lost any quality. I'll probably sell the 14/2.8, and I may buy the new 15/4. Or I may stick with the 16-50 for my wide shots. stan On Feb 11, 2009, at 1:36 PM, Bob Sullivan wrote: > Bill, > I had the same kind of dilema with the DA 21/3.2 Limited. > It's a great lens that I got to use for a couple of days (thanks > Boris!), > but I've got an A20/2.8 which is quite close in size and requires > no new $$$. > Regards, Bob S. > >> On Wed, Feb 11, 2009 at 12:21 PM, William Robb <[email protected]> >> wrote: >> >> ... once the 15 has been out for a while, and presuming it >> gets a favourable response from the users, that I'll sell my DA14 >> in favour >> of the 15.
