[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]Dick; This lens is in my bag every day...on an R6.2 body. Its been everywhere with me, and is without question superior to the earlier 28R. It is a huge improvement at all distances especially the very closest range, it has a floating element (I believe) which supports this performance. Its an oustanding lens, fabulous wide open...and a lens that I have come to love and would be lost without. My only complaint is that the built in shade does not stay in the "out" position so I have wrapped Dymo label tape around the shade holding it permanently in the extended position...oh, the tape is black.

Although I may get another, I have started looking at the 28. What experiences with the newest version, E55, 28/2.8-R???? Thanks, Dick Hemingway Plano, TX>>
