28-70 F4 SMC FA AL

2004-09-20 Thread Christien Bunting
Hi all, I just came across this lens and I have a few questions. 1) Is it sharp wide open ? 2) How does it compare to the 28-80 F3.5-5.6 FA AL ? (which I have at the moment) 3) Are there any quirks I should be looking out for with this lens ? I currently have a 70-210 F4 Rikon lens that I love.
