Speaking of which, I have taken a few test shots with this lens (yes, my regular Cathay Photo sales guy followed me out to the street) and have posted a few at http://forums.clubsnap.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=511 The lens is impressively light for a 400mm prime lens but still got my arms a bit tired after handholding for 15mins... looks like I need to work on those arms... Enjoy!! ;) Cheers!!
