I've been very pleased with the DFA 28-105. It's sharp at all focal
lengths, has great color rendition, WR (in fact - the only WR lens I
own), light weight, and (for me) the 28-105 zoom range is preferable to
24-70. Aside from it being slow the only quibble I have is the light
fall off which can be significant, but which is not really an issue in
most shots. It was problematic in some winter snow / fog images I was
working with a couple months ago, but fairly easy to correct in
Photoshop. Enjoy it!

I received my new DFA 28-105 today, getting my first weather-sealed
full-frame lens in preparation for my upcoming adventure in Yorkshire,
Durham and Northumberland. I haven't given it a proper tryout yet -
just a few quick test shots to insure it doesn't suffer from any major
alignment/decentering issues. But I have to say the build quality
seems impressive for such a budget (by FF standards) lens. Focusing is
fast and virtually silent. And though I'd certainly like a faster lens
(f/5.6 at 105mm is a tad disappointing) the benefit in terms of size
is remarkable. It's surprisingly compact.
I hope to get in a few test photos tomorrow (not that the semester is
over).
