Don't say that. This lens has been on my wishlist for a couple of years. I love my DA40 ltd, but it doesn't focus as close as I'd often like it to. How does it compare with the DFA50 macro? Maybe I could finance the 35 if I sold my 50. How is it in size compared to the DA40 or the FA50? My guess is about halfway between the two. > > > On Tue, Jan 10, 2012 at 4:00 PM, Collin Brendemuehl > <[email protected]> wrote: >> Anyone here using it? >> Opinions? >> >> Sincerely, >> >> Collin Brendemuehl >> "He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose" >> -- Jim Elliott > > -- > -bmw > > -- > 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. -- Larry Colen [email protected] sent from i4est -- 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.
