Thanks Bruce.

I really love that 50.  Now I am getting the bug and
starting to look for more lenses.  Perhaps I'll try
the 16-45 DA lens.  Any opinions on that one?  It
would make for a nice travel lens.  That way I won't
have to keep switching lenses from an A 20mm to the
50.

Hello Francis,

I can highly recommend it.  It is optically extremely good - and gives
you the reach on the wide end.  16mm is visibly wider than the 20mm -
you are comparing about a 24mm to 30mm in 35mm terms.  Quite a
difference.

Here are some shots I've made with the lens:

Excellent images Bruce!

After viewing your images I think the 16-45mm will be
a priority on my list.  Just hope it's available by
the time I save up enough cash to buy it.

The cut-off foot or feet doesn't bother me at all - I'd have likely
not noticed it had you not pointed it out.

Very cute shot!  Kids are so much fun to shoot - some things in their
world are so important and serious!  You captured her concentration,
all right!  g

Nice one.

Thanks Frank.

Kids are really fun to shoot.  And sometimes difficult
because they do random things.  I have to be always
ready with the camera.

It seems like only yesterday she could barely walk and
