RMC75: you've persuaded me to get the 16-85 lens. The little extra touches and features that you so plainly described, plus the kind of shooting I primarily do, leads me to believe that this would be my best choice. Thanks for your input. Actually, thanks to all who offered advice or suggestions. The people on this forum are such great resources. I really do appreciate the assistance.
