It then comes down to a question as to whether you value an included hood and metal lens mount (the DA-L doesn't have these) and weather sealing (the DA-L and DA-ALII don't have this).
You forgot quick-shift, the DA-L miss that one also the other version have it though.It then comes down to a question as to whether you value an included hood and metal lens mount (the DA-L doesn't have these) and weather sealing (the DA-L and DA-ALII don't have this).

Completely understand the 12-24 and 16-50 are totaly different ranges, I was using this as an example of how much the price of the 12-24 seems to have been inflated beyond exchange rate ...
12-24 has no focus motor and is neither limited ar * range, where the 16-50 is. Threfore, cost to produce 12-24 is significantly less than the 16-50 but the street price at the moment is roughly the same.

Also don't forget ultra wide lenses are harder to design than more normal lenses, it isn't just the production cost to consider.
But indeed the price of that lens almost doubled

But if you win a competition then your photography skills are surely enough to comment on someone else their photos right?
Also I find that judging is different then giving constructive comment on photos.
With judging it's all personal and I simply say what I like and don't like about a photo without actually going in to technical aspects. With C&C that's one point you talk the most about but surely personal comments help as well to see what part or which photo works for someone else.
I've read some of your comments and I think they are good, so don't talk yourself down so much. Everyone is qualified to have an opinion.

Just a thought, but isn't it the case that the body is programmed with the MTF data? It doesn't seem likely that Pentax would build lenses containing this info long before a body could use it.
I think you're correct with other lenses with "A" aperture I think it simply stops down one or two stops, ain't sure though.Just a thought, but isn't it the case that the body is programmed with the MTF data?

There is not much to say since it all depends on what you want.
The DA12-24 and the DA*16-50 are two complete different lenses, not like for like comparable so personal preference play a big roll then.
For secondhand prices of the current model lenses I think it's normal they cost 2/3th to 3/4th of the new price but it can depend on the lens and the state of the lens of course.

But waiting for photokina is a good option though, any sight off a new camera might lower the price of the current models.

Being old and my teeth being dodgy I have mine covered on my health insurance. Fillings are relatively painless, especially with a quick injection.
I shall have to have a crown one of these years but I am putting it off for as long as I can. That will eat all my insurance coverage and more besides.
I'm but you still see the bills though, not funny what prices you see sometimes Anvh wrote:

Thank you guys.
Noel Myles made those in 1980s before there was even photoshop, so it's all darkroom work that.
Michael Hallett is using a pocket camera to make those, it just shows that with the right eye and the expertise you can make something.
How should a photograph look like I mean
