my € 0.02 70/77 or wait for the dfa 100/2.8 wr my personal preference is 100 over 70/77 as I both like to be ready to shoot macro and do portrait etc rather from a longer distance and/or with tighter framing. when in doubt, I'd rather take an extra step backwards than forwards as I find it more unobtrusive - vice versa you could just shoot 70/77 with more in the frame and crop at home... IMHO it comes down to macro vs low light with focal length 2nd in line for consideration cheers ecke -- 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.
