Cons: The main con I have is that it is f5.6 at the long end. That\'s not terrible considering you need to stop down a bit at 85mm to get any DOF. At the wide end, it\'s really better at f5.6-8
Pros: Solid, well built lens with weather resistance 16mm at wide end is noticeable as compared to 18mm lenses At f8, I have outstanding center sharpness and excellent on the edges
Summary: This is my primary travel lens paired with the Pentax KP. It\'s a relatively small size for a DSLR (though bigger than a mirrorless), and I have been able to get excellent results. I really like the 16-85 range for ~85% of the kind of shots I take

User profile: Amateur
Cons: High price Slow and variable aperture my copy had quality issues (rubber seal was loose)
Pros: Very useful focal range great sharpness all over the focal range and at all apertures weather sealing fast, silent and acurate autofocus
Summary: A great walkaround lens, very sharp, ideal for outdoors, where you can enjoy its universal focal range, weather sealing and where slow aperture doesn´t mind. If only was it a bit faster or considerably cheaper.
