[QUOTE="J-see, post: 433530, member: 31330"] Besides price I wouldn't know if there are any advantages. The main difference is only the widest aperture and quality which is in most cases (but not all) higher in the widest lenses. The slower lenses are a compromise to either get less weight/size or to sell them cheaper. Not everyone is willing to sell their grandmother to afford some lenses. It makes more difference for the long lenses you shoot wildlife or birding. Then it is all about focus speed and low light performance. [/QUOTE]
