Weeeeeell, in a dream world, I would be able to get myself an ultra sharp 100mm, f1.8 macro that is small and light, and has beautiful bokeh...
...but, we *are* talking Pentax here, so erm, there are few things that they bring out that are "ideal" (as much as I love them!). I tend to agree with you here though Bruce. I think that I will have more versatility with the 100mm, and I really have been needing a decent macro lens for ages. If only it was f1.8 instead of 2.8!! Oh well, it'll suffice I guess, I just wish that those damn babies would sit still in low light! Lol. Decision made - the 100mm it is! Consider myself.... enabled!

While slightly different, I think you would end up having to decide all the time between the two. Since you really like the 50 now, I think it would be better to get something more different (the macro) rather than something very similar to what you already have and really like. Just a little more versatility that way. -- Best regards, Bruce -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
