Eheh
right... i didn't specified why i wrote that list and why i said 16-45 is slow..
17-70 is a fantastic combo because it has a very perfect range ... who cares then if it's f4 ?
f4 is not fast as 2.8 but it's fast enough if the focal range is 17-70 ^^ no ?
I said 16-45 is not fast enought for this reason.

TA = max aperture... i don't know if ta is just in italian... xD

And... no, 16-50 f2.8 is not a good choice... well... if you know somebody who sells it for 350€... ok !!!! ahahhaah

Hello everyone
i just received my new k20d + 18-250 and tumax flash ( won on ebay ) and cause i sold my dear k10d + kit ( AL II ), now i'm gonna rebuild my "normal" park of lenses.
The idea is to sell the 18-250 ( already in lot of forums/places ) because i have no use of it ( i'm already covered from 50 of excellent glasses ^^ ) and to buy a very fast af zoom.
After seeing a lot of reviews and opinions, the list ( by preference ) is:
1. Sigma 24-60 f2.8 - Sharper than 24-70 sigma and wide enough to be a good Permanent lens on the k20d body. It's my best choice because it has a very good range (24 is enough for me in the wide side for the permanent zoom), it's sharp from TA and it's price is wonderfull (or not ? Oo)
2. Pentax 17-70 f4 - It's on second place just because of the sdm fails... I want to buy this objects "used", so no warranty ecc... If sdm fails i'm F****D
I would love a non sdm 17-70... this range is fantastic and i don't care about the TA f4 instead of f2.8
3. Tamron 28-75 f2.8 - Sharp from TA but there are 4 mm less then the sigma. If i buy it i have to take also a "wide" prime. More expensive than the sigma
4. Pentax 16-45 f4 - Nothing to say... good enough but not "fast" enough to be my favourite choice. The range also is good but i would prefer some mm more then 45 :
5. Tamron/sigma 18-50 ( or 17-50 ) f2.8. I saw some opinions saying "sharper from TA" and others "sharp from 5.6"... I think those lenses had discontinous production.

Sorry for my bad english... i'm out of training ^^
Have you anything to add to my personal list ? I'm searching and i'll search for weeks... Best price will win.

P.S. i know the 24-90 pentax, but i don't like his structure and mechanical

I'm searching a fast AF zoom

Sigma 24-60 f2.8
Sigma 18-50 f2.8
Tamron 28-75 f2.8
Tamron 17-50 f2.8
Pentax 17-70 f4
Pentax 16-45 f4

Everything shall be in mint/perfect conditions. A good extra would be a warranty.
If you are offering a 17-70 f4 sdm, the warranty is obligatory ( cause of multiple sdm bugs ).

Cheers
