Originally posted by Martowski Yeah, I don't want to spend a ton but I want something that will give much better image quality than my kit lens. I've also read good things about the smc DA 40mm F2.8 Limited. A little pricier but I'd rather spend a couple bucks extra and be 100% happy with the purchase than spend less money and wonder if I should have gotten something else.
that's the problem, there are so many options out there.
the 40mm is a bit akward focal length to me. maybe for those who use it it's not :-) don't know.
Personally i love my DA70. But this is a very different focal from da 35
Maybe you need to check (or just let us know) on what kind of photographes you like the most?
portraits, birds, landscapes, city, insects, name it...
