One interesting aspect about the SantaCon photos is that they were all shot with my sigma 20/1.8.
After the initial fun of playing with it, I had gotten frustrated by the focusing on that lens. At the distances I bought it for, it's very tough to focus manually. At the light levels that I bought it for, it's very tough to autofocus. Once I finally got the 16-50, I also had something wider, sharper, and reasonably fast. However, I knew that the 16-50 wasn't going to be fast enough, even on the K-x, to use in dive bars, the 31 wouldn't be wide enough, and besides I only wanted to carry one camera+lens. It's funny how things will happen, and lenses that had been pretty much ignored for months, or longer, will suddenly get a lot of use. I suspect that when I get a K-5, my 18-250 will suddenly be fast enough that it's incredible range will cause me to start using it a lot more than I have been for the past year or so. -- Larry Colen l...@red4est.com sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
