I have no doubt of this. (Pentax is generally the best value, after all, and people have had good things to say about the DA* 200 specifically.) And, realistically, it's also the lens to get for the niche. But being unrealistically hopeful in this thread has made me much more informed than I would otherwise be, so it's at least that much of a win. :) (And that 180mm Leica Summicron-R looks amazing, even if affording it would take rather a lot of time and planning.) -- Graydon -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
