The A20/2.8 isn't a superb performer on the *ist D but the A15/3.5 is very good and the A16/2.8 is superb and is particularly easy to convert to a rectilinear view to provide excellent WA coverage. They are all of course faster than the zooms which I appreciate. I've never been a fan of zooms and I wish to retain full frame coverage so that I can use my lenses with my remaining film cameras. Lastly of course I've no wish to plough yet more cash than I already have into Pentax glass. -- Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~distudio//publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998 -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
