Originally posted by Viperwife This lens is tempting me I am wondering if I got this lens it would make me not use my 50 - 200mm. I really want a good replacement for the stock 18-50mm the K5 comes with and thought this one would be great but I do like the 50 - 200mm and dont want to let it got to disuse because its easeir to use the 18 - 135mm. Any insights from those of you that own this?
If you find that it's easier to use the 18-135 you'll be happy you bought the 18-135 I guess. If you don't use the 50-200 anymore just sell it
If you want to zoom further you could go for the DA 50-300, much better optics!
Edit:
@ Karelson: Very nice sky indeed!
@ Zorglub: Nice shots. I have noticed that there are many 'macro-like' shots which are looking awesome. The 18-135 really excels here..
