Hi Godfrey, I have this lens (didn't bring it to the NorCal meet). Don't know if these are the comments you are looking for but:
I really enjoy it for 75% of my casual, walk around, shooting needs on a ZX-5n. I purchased it to replace the FA28-70/4 because it is longer at the tele-end. I prefer it to the FA24-90 (which you saw in San Jose) when I'm indoors and want to use the on-board flash which doesn't seem to like the 24-90 until 50mm or so. I think it's because the FA24-90 has a larger diameter (67mm) than the 28-105 (58mm). Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. For outdoors, I haven't used the both of them together to notice any difference. I keep the two as I've got two AF bodies and they are the everyday body covers. <g> As far as size goes, the 28-105 is about the same as 24-90, just narrower. As far as technical comments go, I'll leave that for the more knowledgeable members. -Patsy Pat in SF --- Godfrey DiGiorgi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Comments on Stan's Pentax site are limited on this lens, I'd like to > know more about it. > > I'm enjoying the mixture of F series modest-aperture zooms and faster A > series primes. :-) > > Godfrey > > __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
