Originally posted by Dice Was going to suggest the 15 20-40 and 70. The 70 would give you a short tele and a very nice portrait lens. I also used it some for landscape photographs and it does very well. This is a compact travel kit with some WR and versatility.
Harr, so good, that really sorts my thoughts here. I think this setup would be almost ideal.
It is a very nice and compact travel setup, also I love the build quality of the limited lenses.
Also I would have 2 complete work sets then, 1 k5iis + 12-24, 1 k50 + da15 and it would give
me time to send my beloved da 12-24 to service to get it properly fixed. It has been in use for 7 years now
and the heavy use left some sign. The tube is a little loose and the zoom cranks a little. Still perfectly sharp
the monster of a lens.
Plus I have a couple of 55mm filters from an old canon set laying around which could use some usage.
So I guess I start hunting for a nice used DA 20-40, add the DA 15, sell the Sigma 17-50 and add the DA 70 at last.
Sounds like a good plan or am I missing something here?
