Pemtax may not be the market leader in manufacturing professional lenses for 35mm photography. But Pentax makes very good consumer lenses.
I just tested three consumer zoom lenses: Pentax SMC-F 3.5-5.6/35-80mm Tokina 2.8-4.3/28-70mm Tamron 3.5-5.6/28-80mm Aspherical The Pentax-F (for which I have paid 31 USD + shipping) simply beats the crap out of the two others. So, what I perhaps can learn is this: Pentax makes excellent consumer lenses. (That Pentax makes great pro lenses, I allready know. But they are quite expensive). If I ever buy third party lenses again, I shall make sure it is pro-level versions, not consumer lenses. All the best. Jens Bladt mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hjem.get2net.dk/bladt
