Thanks for all your advices. There are some nice points and now i can narrow my selection - I will definitively go for some lightweight lenses with own character - so DA* zooms are out of game. I had Tammy 17-50 and I found them not so great at wide end and when i have looked at my pictures, i found, that I'm using it really little times. Maybe it has decent IQ, but simply (don't know how to express that) I don't like shooting with it. Shooting with my other lenses is far much more "fun". And when I'm worried about weather, I will grab my 18-135 WR. I'm not a pro and I don't plan to selling my pictures. But it's my really big hobby. I like shooting with primes. But I was wondering if I have the budget, whether it be a shame not to buy a premium *zoom. After reading your posts, I see that Obviously not
I have spent many hours reading reviews and user reviews here on forum. And I realize that many of DXO charts and photozone.de rewievs and MTF tables aren't too pozitive on pentax side. But I'm not going to shoot testing chart... But it make me quite disoriented.
The only zoom, which I'm now considering, is new 20-40 limited. Its nice, looks built like a tank, has DC and WR. It doesn't like all others zooms. But what about IQ? Reviews are very mixed.
20-40 is about $1000.
For that price I can get DA70ltd($750) and DA501.8 ($175). And will saving for 15ltd($700), 21ltd($700)...
That make primes in line -AF: DA15 ltd, DA21ltd, DA35 2.4, DA50 1.8, DA70ltd DA100WR And MF: cheapo 28mm average 50mm and nice 135mm.
35ltd looks nice, but since I have DA35f2.4 and it's quite good - so a will firstly upgrade FL, that i haven't covered by primes.
FA limiteds seems to be out of my reach. FA 31 is way too expensive for me and FA77? I don't know if it is real improvement from 70ltd. For price diferences I can buy another DA limited. I'm not going to go to FF, if Pentax will bring one, anyway.
Finally, I have this idea:
20-40 ($1000) - if you can consider its IQ is near to primes
DA35 - I already have
DA50 1.8 - ($ 175)
DA70ltd ($750, sometimes used appear here for $450 )
DA100WR - I already have.
It will be under $2000 ($1700) totally - and I can buy piece after piece according my financial situation. Now, I have no more than $1200 (really max).
What do you think?
