there are things in live and photography other than resolution.
and attaching labels.
of course different lenses render differently. it's just that the
resolution is usually not among the differences, in 6MP cameras
at least.

*istDL resolves ~53 lpmm -- quite undemanding wrt resolution.
Between lenses I used I could see differences in contrast,
color saturation, etc

That's where I saw the difference: subjects at a distance.
With the Pentax lens, magnifying the picture, I could make out
details in subjects at long

Got my *istDL before Christmas and have so far done nearly all my
shooting with the lens that came with the camera: a Sigma 28-125.
I've been using that lens because (a) it is autofocus and I have
trouble focussing, (b) it has a nice range of focal lengths, and
(c) it's fairly light.
In the last
Kieth, which is better?
