you cannot use this as a general guide. if you don't pixel peep, or blow up your pictures, even f3.5 or f4 can be used. still acceptable sharpness.

but why do people decrease their aperture to f10, f16, f22? simply said, it is to extend your shutter speed/exposure time WITHOUT over exposing your picture due to long exposure. if you are shooting in the dark.

if shooting in the day, same theory applies also. the main point of is to control your exposure.

so if you find that f22 might diffract your picture, try to shoot using a ND filter and use f16 or f18 instead.

If I were you, I'll go for B
the wider aperture on 50mm is really useful

If i were you, i will go for option 2. The combination is more versatile. You get your zoom and a good potrait lens (50mm) Well just my humble opinion though. smile.gif Hope it helps

Wow you guys are quick lol!

I used to have this lens and i took it to my travel to HK. Its a nice versatile lense with great range and good iq. But for potrait, 50mm is better. It really depends on what you really need.

If you think changing lens is a hassle then by all means go for 16-105. Its a great lense. But if you wanna venture into potrait, then 50mm is a better choice. Just my 2cents. biggrin.gif

CZ 16-80 ( Dont mind 2nd hand)
SAL 16-105

CZ 16-80 would be the best choice IMO
if you need the zoom range, then you might wanna consider 16-105
if you want the wider aperture, get tamron 17-50 f2.8

Why are you shooting at F22 in the first place? If you're putting your camera on a tripod for slow shutter, you should turn off your Steady Shot as it will not work well on slow shutter; and on a tripod... you don't need Steady Shot at all.

and like zstan, ieR says. F22 will cause diffraction but that doesn't mean you should not use this figure at all, it depends on what you trying to take.

achew: Your shots are "bokehlicious" as always! smile.gif

I have SAL 16-105mm. Good for your day to day normal usage. The zoom range should be sufficient without having to carry multiple lens. I m sort of lazy to change and want to minimize dust going into sensor compartment.
