But the post got way too long and out-of-hand... and Pentax content was
pretty minimal... so I cut and pasted it to my "photo journal" on
my website for anyone interested.

The grainier shots that I posted are also partly due to some pretty
significant cropping on a few of the images, so it's hard to tell from
those. But overall, as I mentioend, the Fuji stuff did pretty good.

it still would've been nice.
OKAY OKAY... so maybe it wasn't "atrocious" as I mentioned... but I sure
was dissatisfied. How's that? So... back to my original question...

imply
"better"... "much better"... or does it blow the former two out of the
water [I'd hope for the latter answer to be honest].
OH! BTW, the photos from the weekend can be seen here if you're interested
in such things:

confirm or deny this presumption?
For those with experience with these lenses (preferably first hand, but
second or third hands will do, too).. please enlighten me! Thanks in
