While you can click to enlarge the small pictures, the enlarged pictures are still downsized. Key EXIF data are preserved, though.

The pictures are not bad IMO. The reviewer comments that the DA 18-135 has both better focusing speed and responsiveness than the "high-end" DA*50-135 with SDM, which is a bit to his surprise.

Some images are really sharp, cats are soft but the building looks quite ok, it seems to me that sweet areas is at wide end. AF motor is new one - this sounds good. Compared to 50-135 IQ is not so good at tele end. But it is very good option for walking and travel lens and with WR. I have not seen the contrast data yet, it is hard to detect it from cropped images. if it is better than 18-55 or at the level of 16-45 it is very good. Hopefully it tolerates dynamic range of K5 at the wide end.
