I think the DA* 60-250 is a bit better at f4 and 135mm than is the DA*
50-135, but they're too different animals, and both are excellent. The
50-135 is superb and has the advantage of being a stop faster. It's
more suited for low-light work like weddings or concerts. But if you
want a lens with the length for outdoor sporting events and need the
reach, then the 60-250 is a better choice. The correct choice, of
course, is both:-).

so I'm looking at either the DA Star 50-135mm F2.8 ED (IF) SDM or
the DA Star 60-250mm F4 ED (IF) SDM and the prices are way
different, 500 smackers worth at B&H. Is the 60-250 really that much
better, and keep in mind that linear thought and I rarely collide.
For the difference, I could also get the 21Ltd and a grip for the K-7.
What to do, what to do?
