It's a really good lens. I've used it for a high percentage of shots in recent trips (Egypt and Italy) and the quality is very good to excellent. It's light and not too long or awkward to carry, so I have no hesitation in recommending it as a walk-around lens. You're only problem may be that its maximum aperture is a constant f4. HTH

How would you evaluate the results you get? I'm looking for a carry-around for people shooting (dance studio). And this is half the price of the 16-15/2.8. Hopefully it produces a high quality image. -- 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.
