What focal length would you take? And why? The 40 and the 21 are both *awfully* small. I have a teeny little camera bag and I can put one on the camera and jam the other in underneath. If I *had* to pick one, it'd be the 40mm; I recently spent 10 days in Hawaii and my shots were about 90%/10% 40mm/21mm. -Tim -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
