If you have more money to spend, the fairly new Pentax 24-90 is challenged by the Tamron 24-135. If I were buying a new all-purpose zoom, I'd sure check out the Tamron 24-135/3.5-5.6. For travel and vacation photos, the 24mm end of a zoom is very useful, and a close-focus ability to about 1:3 magnification is very useful also. -- John Mustarde www.photolin.com - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
