Ken,
While fast glass may be sexy, if that once in a lifetime photo needs an
exposure of 1/250 at F8 who cares about F2.8?

A good point often overlooked,  How often is the shot at f/2.8?

Bob


With me, it is OFTEN!! Lots of low light venues, so when the shot requires 1/250 at f2.8, or even 1/125th at f2.8, 1/125th or 1/60th at f4 ain't gonna do it, at 200mm...IS helps, but I'd like to shoot at the fastest feasible shutter speed, and let IS rectify my movement, if possible. At weddings, they are ALL once in a lifetime photos... ;-)
