Why no love for the DA 40 XS? Not as widely accepted than the Plastic wonder that is...
Is it because of the unusual focal length? (close enough to 50mm and we have a lot to choose from) or is it the price compared to the DA 35? (which is a lot cheaper).
Whatever the reasons are, for me am really glad I've tried it... Now it's the most used lens I've ever had (considering owning other great lenses like the DA 70 ltd, DA 40 ltd, DA 35, DA 50-135, FA 50 1.7, M 50 1.4, A 50 1.4, Revuenon 55 1.2, Super Tak 55 1.8, Super Tak 50 1.4... etc) and loving each and every time I am using this lens...
If i had to keep only 1 lens, i would surely keep this one (a do it all lens for me).
What i love about it? everything....
Sharpness, rendering, bokeh, color, weight....
I really think we should have 1 in the lens club.... some pics (4 of the first 10 shots from this lens, only resized)
