Other than the 28-75 not being wide enough, how do you like it? I'm so broke I can't even afford to fantasize about buying lenses these days, but that's the focal length range that I keep finding myself needing, and I will grudgingly admit that a zoom lens can be more convenient that swapping through a bag full of primes, especially when shooting action. My 18-250 is very convenient, but not fast enough, and the 16-50 is fast enough, but doesn't go quite as long as I'd like. > > First impressions: > > 1. Well built. > 2.
