Subject: Looking for 80-200 zoom
I am looking for recommendation on a lens in
the 80-200 range. I have an old Kiron, f4
80-210 that did a good job, it's just big and heavy. I would like to
replace it with something smaller and lighter. Browsing the Camera stores it
looks like the selection of manual focus lenses has really diminished since I
was in the hobby.
The only thing that really appealed to me
was the Pentax zoom but it is a separate focus and zoom. I am not sure that I
would like that after using one touch zooms for so long. I am primarily
looking for a small lens so that means f4 to f5.6. So anyone got any
experience with one and any suggestions?
I have been a Ricoh shooter for years and
just sent off the money for an LX. I have lusted over these since they were
new! A few years out of the hobby and I am getting back. Have a line on a
second LX too. I loved my Ricoh XR-S and used it so much it looks like it has
been through a war. Sorry to ramble I am just excited about finally getting an
LX after all these years.
