I'm really curious, because usually a lens this wide has its own limitations but often makes a spectacular view. I mean, if Pentax is still selling this lens, it should be good. How much do you pay for it?
I've just got my D70 (cheaper than *ist D), and because of the 1.5x factor, my widest lens 17-35 and a 20mm, only becoming 25.5mm and 30mm respectively. Although Nikon makes a 14mm (equal to 21mm), some of the users said it's not that good, esp at the price. The DX assigned 12-24 is also only 'ok' at 12mm. So I just want to know if Pentax has something special at the wide end. -----Original Message----- From: William Robb [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2004 12:22 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: A 15mm (was RE: 77 limited or 85* for portraits/canndids) Not a clue. I am so bad, I really don't worry over much about this sort of stuff. I think the M 85mm f/2 is a great lens. That should tell you how discerning I am. William Robb
