Which is a real shame that the 18/135mm vignettes for the whole FL on FF.
Mine regularly vignettes on APS-c. But I love it anyway. Today and many days I'm out with the 18-135 and DA*200 ƒ2.8 and a couple TCs. If I had a 50 macro that would be all I needed, 99% of the time.
even though it's getting on, the 18-135 was the first fast DC type lens, really the firs electric drive lens that competed with screw drive for speed. It's also still a good at anything at 24mm for landscape, easily outperforming the Pentax 24 mm prime and pretty much indistinguishable from the Tamron 17-50 or DA 16-85. It has it's good points.
To me, an 18-135 and the new 55-300 PLM on a K-70 would be the perfect walk around situation.
