Good Morning all,
For a couple of years, I have had a Sigma 24-70 F2.8 as an all purpose lens. I cannot fault this for any reason regarding it's quality or performance. However, I find myself, more times than not, needing just a BIT more on the wide angle end for group shots, etc. I have read the reviews on the Sigma 17-70, Pentax 16-45, etc. Though I cannot recall using my Sigma at the wide open F2.8, wasn't sure if their was any "sacrifice" with going with the Pentax DA 16-45 versus the Sigma or even Tamron 17-50....
Just thought I would collect any first hand experiences or thoughts. Most of my shots are either outdoor scenics or large group shots at weddings, etc...and would like the wider angle but not sacrifice the quality that I have come to expect from the 24-70 or have to swap lenses during a shoot as I keep a 70-200 on my other K20 body...
Feedback is always appreciated.
Have a great day!
