Originally posted by RonMexico I was so close to buying the Sigma 70-200 but for now I decided to buy the DA* 50-135. It should arrive early next week and hopefully it's as good as advertised.
I've also read great reviews on the FA35, to the point where I'm wondering if I should buy that lens, or the FA 31.
The more I think about it, the more my LBA grows.
You can borrow my FA 35mm, kid! Just not from 3/22-3/28 when I bring that bad boy down to Miami.
I love the lens. Such a handy focal length on an APS-C sensor. I'm comfortable using it at 2.0. It's plastic, so it's not as well built as the ltds, but I haven't heard of anyone having issues with it being too fragile and breaking. I just bought the 16-45, and I'm pleasantly surprised by how well it performs. I can already see myself cycling between my three lenses.
Taken with the K10D and FA 35 at 1/15, f/2.0, ISO 400:
