I just took a quick look and was surprised to see that Sigma has a lot of offerings in the ultra wide angle zoom category - 15 - 30, 17 - 35, and 20 - 40. Flare control is a major issue for me and I have confidence in the FA 20 - 35 on that point, but the two Sigma EX's I (70 - 200 f2.8 and 50 f2.8 macro) do quite well in the flare dept. - MCC - - - - - - - - - - Mark Cassino Kalamazoo, MI [EMAIL PROTECTED] - - - - - - - - - - Photos: http://www.markcassino.com - - - - - - - - - - - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
