Hello
I wonder if anyone can help me with a perhaps somewhat
strange comparison. I am considering the FA 20-35mm
f/4.0 AL versus the FA 35mm f/2.0 AL + FA 24mm f/2.0
AL IF.
I know this is not exactly a fair comparison the
zoom would give me a much wider 20mm instead of 24mm
and greater portab
onse. This is
sick. I want no part of it. I think there are some
photography sites on the internet where rational
discussions of photographic topics can take place. I'm
going to see if I can find one.

their authenticity is a source of controversy
particularly in academic legal circles, and that
therefore people must view them differently...people

Wasn't there a time when Pentax actually cared about
being a leader? Are they now content with always
following (more and more distantly), at best offering
products close to the others and cheaper? This would
be sad. If they simply don't have the might to

of the (P)Z-1's and (Z)PZ-1p's, you get 154!

Something is bothering me a bit...
I have heard repeated references to Pentax cameras vs.
other brands in relation to admirably smaller size.
For instance, the N F5 and C EOS-1V are
decried as monsters and behemoths - as though, of
course, we wouldn't one of those. And a post of

As is typical for this magazine, there isn't much of
substance to the article...no test
