Originally posted by axl for me the difference in FOV between 24 and 31 is rather significant. As I said, I prefer 24 to 31 8 times out of 10....
Sorry if I wasn't clear, I meant that there should not be much difference in IQ, though there will be much differences in rendering (each has its qualities). The FOV is quite different, I agree.
Originally posted by paperbag846 keep in mind that the DA 21 is bloody sharp wide open.
True. I can use it wide open without an afterthought, something I cannot do with any other lens.
Originally posted by Duplo I am so tuned to the FOV of the DA21ltd
True, 21 mm feels very natural. I was worried at first because I'm used to the 17 mm of my Siggy 17-70, but I have never had issues with the FOV, quite the contrary. The same applies to my wife's use of the lens.
