    I never really got on with the slow speed of these mega zooms where you are often restricted to f/5.6 or worse.

    Give me a cheap & cheerfull 35 or 50 fixed any day.

    I know what you mean.

    I needed a lens for all types shots on my next trip and this came up the best of those I looked at. I am not going to be able to carry more than one lens so I need one for standard pictures and a decent zoom capability.
