IMO there is nothing wrong with the pancakes. In fact I'm debating myself buying the 21mm. With the tiny 21mm I can have the camera in my pocket and flip it up and shoot from the hip. Don't know if I'll ever do it, but the idea is tempting. I imagine myself walking around slick pony tail, dark shades and a leather coat.
My point was simply that a pancake is not a substitute for fast lens.

Yes, I fear the fastest lenses we'll see from Pentax from now on are f2.8 zooms and more farty little pancake lenses as primes. -- 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 -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
