Will do. I was thinking the same thing. I also have a wide open shot (by chance of another young lady) that I'll upload soon.

Re: PESO: Not a street shot :-)
Your absolutely right. It's not a street shot, it's a pretty girl shot. And a very nice one at that. The second thing I was drawn to, is that you managed to catch a single drop of melted ice cream. For some weird reason I think that's pretty neat.

Re: PESO: Not a street shot :-)
It certainly is a good, crisp photo, which means that lens is fine performer. All kidding aside, it will do you well.

Re: PESO: Not a street shot :-)
Hello Paul, Keep showing us shots from that new lens. I am quite anxious to see how well it performs wide open at different focal lengths.

It's the DA 50-200 of course. I'm very pleased with its performance. This shot is quite sharp at 100%. Perhaps i'll post a detail later.
