Hello Dieter,
Thanks for the link. How exciting! Seems the B.I.G. is a new lens not
listed at WJM's site:
http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/shiflist.htm
Who is the lens manufacturer?
Does it have auto-aperture? Auto-focussing? Both?
Does it have electronics to support TTL metering?
Or will it lock up your EOS camera?
Season's Greetings
