I shoot this lens relatively stopped down when it's bright enough. Combined with LR corrections, it does ok.
But it packs well for bringing along.

Took mine with a K-3 out on the bike today.

I am off to Seville this weekend, the weather is, of course, rain!

But I have a K3 and an 18-135mm.

I wonder how many canikons I will see this weekend

I was a bit unhappy, but a friend pointed out that I will come back with pictures of Seville that most people don't get, and let's face it, being from Lancashire, I am use to shooting in the rain.

Bad weather makes good pictures!

I agree. Mine hardly ever comes off my K-3. Purchasing it as the "kit" lens for the K-3 was one of my best decisions.

I like your attitude. We need more of this kind of posting around here.

First time out with KP. Had the 18-135 mounted and I think the combination handled this shot pretty well. (Cross posted)

That's just LBA talking to you. Even when I think that way about another lens, the 18-135 isn't going anywhere
