Pentax 17-28mm anyone used it?
I had a fish-eye once, and rarely used it. Be sure you really want it before parting with the hard-earned.
The two lenses I'm looking out for at the moment for my *ist D are the 77 Limited and (despite all I've said in the past about zooms!) the 18-55 zoom. I know the latter won't work on 35mm, but I very, very rarely use 35mm now.
But to answer your question, I haven't used the 17-28, though it gets reasonable reviews on Stan's site.

So how about a good 28-XX lenses for under $5 trillion?

Personally I would want a standard (ie not distorted WA zoom before getting a fisheye)
also autofocus is less critical on WA lenses so second hand Pentax K mount 28mm and 35mm are good buys?

I've considered the 16-45mm, but would like something back-compatible with my 35mm Pentax. So I was wondering if anyone has had experience with the Pentax 17-28mm AF lens particularly on an ist d.
