... and with a price tag to match! I could never quite persuade myself I needed the older FA* 28-70/2.8 to go along with the FA* 80-200/2.8 that was my main lens. But that's because I was mostly doing motorsports photography - very different from the sort of thing that Juan does - so the 28-105/f4.0-5.6 I had met my needs for the occasional pit or paddock shots. I'm waiting to see whether the announced flagship APS-C camera body makes it all the way into production; if it does, (and assuming that it has the sort of feature upgrades that could tempt me) there's a fairly good chance I'll buy one last Pentax body. But despite what my PDML T-shirt says I'm not sure I'll be buying any more lenses; the main potential candidate - the D FA 150-450 - would add quite a bit to whatever the new body (plus grip) would cost. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
