Thanks, Tim. I really like the DA 40, too. Today I picked up a DA* 50-135 and will see how far that and the DA 40 will get me. By the time I know if I really need a wide angle I'll hopefully also know how the K200D performs at higher ISO settings, so then I can decide wether the extra speed of the DA* 16-50 is worth the extra cash, or if the DA 21 will be all right for me. My guess is that it will.
