How wide do you need? The 12-24 is clearly the nicest wide zoom here. I'm looking for a zoom as well, but I just want a walking around lens. In all seriousness, you are a pro and need to cover all focal lengths with fairly good glass. -----Original Message----- From: "Tanya Love" <[email protected]> Sender: [email protected] Date: Wed, 24 Nov 2010 11:10:03 To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List<[email protected]> Reply-To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List <[email protected]> Subject: wide angle zoom comparison...
So I really am needing a good wide angle zoom. I've been procrastinating on it for ages and "making do" with my 18-55mm kit lens, but it's not fast enough, and optically, could be better too. Sooo, would love to hear your words of wisdom in regards to comparing these: 1. Sigma Lens 20-40mm f/2.8 EX DG ASP - about $400 2. PENTAX-DA* 16-50mm f/2.8 ED AL[IF]SDM - about $1400 3. Pentax Lens 12-24mm f/4 ED AL IF DA - about $1269 4. Sigma Lens 10-20mm f/3.5 EX DC HSM - about $927 Obviously the 20-40 would be a whole lot less in terms of $$ and you usually get what you pay for, but I thought I'd throw it out there to see if anyone has any experience with it? I'm fairly certain that I am set on #2, but interested to here all of your feedback first... Tan.x.
