Re: Comparison of the SD1M/17-70 C lens with the DPxM series

I am a big fan of the 17-70C; great for the money. I an also question how much you gain by stopping down. I know its corners are soft up to 30mm or so. It does a good job opened up, even at 70mm. And its close-up work (best at about 45mm or so) is excellent. AF seems to  be very good also.
