Tom, what about the SIGMA 24mm f1.8 EX DG MACRO (for Pentax) ?After a long debate with myself I also finally ordered a K3 Which I will receive the next days.
I have been using the K5iis for some time now, also other dslrs like the 5dIII and m43 (lately EM1).
I thought the EM1 would be my small and fast camera-system of choice. Overall I think the lenses available for m43 are very good (IMO better than what is available for the Pentax). However a) I just cant get connected to EVF b) I prefer the IQ of the Pentax over m43 c) I get a better keeper rate with the Pentax (I think because I can see the subject as it is and not through an EVF. d) I like the user interface of the Pentax.
Main reason for me to get the K3 instead of K5IIs is the new AF with more AF points.
Compared to the EOS 5 I use the Pentax more often because of the smaller size of Pentax-lenses. I now often carry 15DA, 20-40 (most used lens), 50-135 and 31/1.8 when the light is low.
One thing I miss is a fast 35mm equivalent lens. 31 is a little too long for my taste. a 24/1.4 would be great.
Kind regards.
