Joe, I have the Pop Photo lens tests of both. The old FA Power Zoom may be just slightly sharper overall, but the difference is so small that you would be hard put to notice. Go by other considerations:
- the old PZ will balance nicely on your PZ-1 and gives you power zoom functions, if you need those (few of us do). - the old PZ has nice 1:3 macro capability. - the new 28-105 will balance better on Pentax's newer, smaller bodies, so you'll be better set if you buy one of those eventually.
