    Yeah, the bokeh in that shot is pretty lack lustre...LOL


    Shows its not always the equipment. Beautiful shot Ben.


    I'm still say'n... that lens is cheap.... but very under rated.

    Hmmm I may have contradicted myself a bit there. I guess what I was trying to say (beforeI wenton a rant) is that in the right conditions the optical quality is great for the price, the build quality is fairly uninspiring though.

    Thanks, everyone for the advise. I can almost make myself sick trying to decide what to do. I hope I can just get a 24-70 or 24-105 sometime soon. I wish they would add IS to that 24-70. :-)
