Pentax SMC P-DA J 16 mm - 45 mm F/4.0 Riom lens

From: $298.95

The Pentax smc P-DA 16-45mm F4.0 ED/AL is recommended for use with digital cameras. It features a 3x zoom ratio with focal lengths covering ultra-wide angle to normal ranges, incorporates a high-refraction extra low dispersion (ED) glass element to produce a high-resolution, high-contrast image with true-to-life color rendition, and aspherical lens elements to help transmit the light more efficiently through the lens to the focal plane. The smc P-DA 16-45mm F4.0 ED/AL is well-suited for advanced amateurs and professionals.

From: Amazon Posted: Aug 30, 2008 Type: User Review Excellent value

For my first DSLR I bought this zoom for general shooting through recommendations from dpreview web site forums. It is not the most solid built zoom, but it does fine for wide angle to normal scenics at f8-f11.

From: Amazon Posted: Aug 05, 2008 Type: User Review Five decades and they are still at it

Pros:
1) It is considerably lighter and smaller than one would...

From: Amazon Posted: Nov 05, 2007 Type: User Review Clear and flexiable

I bought this lens instead of the 18-55 mm kit lens and I am very satified with that decision. The images are clear and the colors true. For normal picture you really don't see any distortion. I don't have a good prime lens to compare it to yet,...
