I have owned one since they first came out and I'm extremely happy with its
IQ. It's been by far my most used lens for my first 6 years of digital
photography, now replaced by the Sigma 17-70 f/2.8/4 HSM thanks its longer
reach and silent operation.
Another important plus of the 16-45 is there are no faulty samples around,
as it happens so often with the DA* 16-50 f/2.8. That was confirmed by the
Pentax service for Italy, where a technician once told me that the 16-45/4
is the most reliable Pentax lens in recent years, with a zero-fault score.
They never get any 16-45/4 back from unhappy purchasers.
The only problem can be it only reaches 45mm, but that's hardly a surprise
;-)

I just noticed the camera shop's ad also has this lens on special (not the
16-50 f/2.8 unfortunately). What's the group's consensus on this one? It
might be a bad assumption that PDML can agree on anything, but it's worth a
try.
Cheers,
Dave
