If we're going to make wishes, I wish it were the 800/5.6.

A 28/2.8 is one of those combinations I would use occasionally but don't feel a compulsion to buy. I have a 28-105/3.5-4.5 Nikon and I don't take a lot of pictures wide open at 28mm wishing for another half a stop.

Maybe that's why it's discounted.

I'm conflicted -- I too wish it was the 35 IS -- I'd buy that in a second!

I was out yesterday with the original 28/2.8 and had a great time with it on 1D3. It is really a versatile focal length on all three formats. And the new one has great IQ (been re-reading the reviews to remind myself).

Vox -- Unlike you, I have the 28-135 IS and the 28-300L, and often wish I had a little faster lens at the wide end and also top imaging quality. (I got rid of my 28-105 some time ago -- just doesn't cut it, even on crop.)

I have the older model 28 and 35 right now and like them. Price is the only thing standing in my way.

But if I have to choose, the 35 IS will be more useful for me, coupled with my 24 TS-E for good range and IQ.

Arrrrrrggggg! Adorama -- I hate you! I love you!

No worries. It evens out, over time.

You should probably talk to Helen about this.

Talk to Adorama's Helen Oster.....she might be able to retroactivate you, if you bought the lens from Adorama.

She won't think I'm crazy? (Sure she will!)

I suppose she runs into this sort of mental and emotional instability a lot from "photographers".

You got that right. Haven't had a chance to shoot it much, but it doesn't seem like I got a bum copy. I always feel like I'm playing the lottery when getting a lens...

Peter,

The last thing that Tim needs is to become radioactive.

That lens must be really popular to sell at such a low price.

Thanks for the tip, unfortunately I got it at Amazon, seemed like they dropped it $30 before Adorama and B&H. But Adorama dropped it another $70.

C'est la vie.

Got one,
I have one word for my reaction as I took the first shot and viewed it on screen......WOW!!!

What a beauty of a lens...redefines SHARP...especially in the centre from f2.8-f5.6 it absolutely pings.
Love the compact size too and the Image Stabiliser.

Was hoping this would be the price of the 24IS or the 35IS. Hopefully in a few months
