What might be a good compliment to the FA 20~35 zoom for the istDS? I'm
compiling a wish list, and would like a relatively fast, high-quality zoom
that extends the range of the 20~35 to about 100mm or so. I'd prefer an FA
rather than a DA, and am not looking for kit lenses or low quality consumer
glass - something comparable to the 20~35 or better, preferably fixed
aperture.
Suggestions welcome - oh, not Sigma ... Thanks!
My answer to this might be the DA50-135/2.8 when it is released. The
FA24-90/3.5-4.5 AL is another option. The Tamron 28-75/2.8 is another
reputedly good lens in this general range.
Interesting that you are not suggesting the 28-105/3.2-4.5 AL; I
thought you had a high opinion of it.
