Has anyone used this lens? If yes how does it compare to the 12-60mm F2.8-4.0 SWD ergonomically, IQ and bokeh wise?
I'm finally getting round to adding a 35mm DSLR. I may wait to see what the new Canon 5D replacement looks like but right now it's between the Sony A700 with the F2.8 Zeiss zoom and the E3. The Canon 1 series and Nikon D3 are just to big for me to lug around. I had a 1Ds and while it was a great camera I hated the size.
Looking for a fast zoom, IS, fast AF and not to big a size camera. Weatherproofing and live view are not a big deal for me but the fact that the E3 has it doesn't hurt and without the grip it's a manageable size.
