Originally posted by rob_k20d I realised you don't own it, but I thought that you were asking for suggestions of lenses you might buy - such as the DA 35, 2.4.
I have that lens too, and can certainly recommend it. But if keeping your kit as small as possible is important, I'd go for the 40mm instead - so that you can take the kit lens and the prime. And the XS version isn't that much more expensive than the 35mm.
I see what you were saying...that's good advice. I hadn't really even considered the 40mm XS until you mentioned it. Looking at images of that lens mounted on a K5, I realize how small it really is. Amazing.
Thanks again, I've got two weeks to decide!
