I don't agree, a faster lens will be easier to manual focus wide open, composition too. Even if you never shoot at F2.8 you still get some benefit out of the wide open speed.

Absolutely no point in a 2.8 lens of this zoom range if you're not gonna use it! And when you do, if it sucks, you'll be forever kicking yourself that you didn't go for the other one ;) -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ---------- http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________ -- 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. -- 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.
