Comments about Pentax Pentax SMCP-DA 18mm - 55mm f/3.5-5.6 AL WR (Weather Resistant) Autofocus Zoom Lens for Digital SLRs.:
I have a K200D and I was looking at the DA* 16-50mm but after reading some of the negative reviews I was a little nervous. Given that I already have a Sigma 24-60mm F2.8 (which I like) this weather sealed lens was just what I was looking for.
Do not hesitate to buy this lens if you're looking for a well made, sharp, weather sealed, and inexpensive lens.

Comments about Pentax Pentax SMCP-DA 18mm - 55mm f/3.5-5.6 AL WR (Weather Resistant) Autofocus Zoom Lens for Digital SLRs.:
This is a great lens. I bought it to replace a Sigma 17-70. The resolution is a lot better, colour rendition is fantastic, nice bokeh, verryy light and with a useful lens hood that lets you play with your polariser filter. I love that I can carry it the whole day and not end up with a sore neck and back. If only it was a stop faster and 15mm longer, it would be perfect.

Looking for low cost weatherized alternative for K10 and K20. Was put off buy high cost of DA 16 - 50. Lack of SDM not an issue for my usage. Own Sigma 17 - 70 as main walkaround lens. Owned the orginal 18- 50. This lens was a definate upgrade to the orginal. Only replaces Sigma when weather an issue.
