Yes, I wonder if I wasn't a bit hasty selling the 28-70 but at the time I had bought the DA16-45. I reasoned that if I needed a longer lens than the 16-45 I would use either my F80-200 f4.7-5.6 or my A70-210 f4 or my Tamron 90mm. I have since been considering getting a FA 28-105/3.2-4.5 as I agree with Paul that it would make a good companion for the DA16-45.
