There is a practical money side to zoom vs. prime, particularly PENTAX. If you own any K-mount body except a few (ZX30 and 50?), you have a treasure trove of old primes available to you. Cheap, multi-coated, almost no dogs. You may be "reduced" to center-weighted and aperature priority (no big deal). For those of you, like me, still acquiring stuff, this lets you in "on the cheap" to some good prime lenses, one at a time, burning no more than about 50 to 100 dollars per lens. This has to be one of the strongest advantages to using Pentax. -Lon - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
