Since it is soft wide open, I mostly use it f2.8 (sometime f2) and below. Hence wondering if I better get a 2.8 zoom which will offer better flexibility in street shots. I prefer sharper pictures than softer one (which I can better handle in PP)
Please share your opinion.
Thanks
You could get the DA 40 Limited. It's fast focusing, sharp, compact, and pretty cheap compared to the rest of the Limited line.
I am probably not going back to zooms unless it's the 50-135 and possibly the 16-50 when Pentax upgrades their designs
. Primes are just sharper and lighter to carry :-)
