> Correct. the 80-320 is said to be much better - but how much?
Would you like some scans of the test reports (AP) for the FA 100-300 and FA 80-320? The four lines of the resolution chart on the 80-320 are almost one solid line! However the 100-300 gets a glowing report as well it's only general opinion that put me off, I like the way it retains it's overall length when zoomed (correct me if I'm wrong) John John Whittingham Technician ---------- Original Message ----------- From: "Raimo K" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Mon, 25 Oct 2004 19:04:46 +0300 Subject: Re: Samples from today's shoot with the FA 80-320 > Correct. the 80-320 is said to be much better - but how much? > All the best! > Raimo K > Personal photography homepage at: > http://www.uusikaupunki.fi/~raikorho > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Jens Bladt" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Sunday, October 24, 2004 11:43 PM > Subject: Re: Samples from today's shoot with the FA 80-320 > > > It's probably the FA 100-300mm, that everybody says is quite a dog!? > > Jens Bladt > > mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > http://hjem.get2net.dk/bladt > > > > > > -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- > > Fra: Raimo K [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Sendt: 24. oktober 2004 22:06 > > Til: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Emne: Re: Samples from today's shoot with the FA 80-320 > > > > > > Detail?
