I received my new DFA 28-105 today, getting my first weather-sealed full-frame lens in preparation for my upcoming adventure in Yorkshire, Durham and Northumberland. I haven't given it a proper tryout yet - just a few quick test shots to insure it doesn't suffer from any major alignment/decentering issues. But I have to say the build quality seems impressive for such a budget (by FF standards) lens. Focusing is fast and virtually silent. And though I'd certainly like a faster lens (f/5.6 at 105mm is a tad disappointing) the benefit in terms of size is remarkable. It's surprisingly compact.
I hope to get in a few test photos tomorrow (not that the semester is over). -- Mark Roberts - Photography & Multimedia www.robertstech.com -- 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.
