thanks Paul. I'd heard so many reports of the "average" build quality that I was a little surprised when I received it ... This example is a nicely finished, smooth operating lens. It's not a metal body Limited for sure, but it feels good and works very nicely.
The performance seems very good to excellent. These were all taken hand held, just to try it out a bit, but normally I shoot with a tripod support for exposures at or near 200mm, I expect it will perform even better that way. Image stabilization only helps so much. I will do some more rigorous testing against the FA135. Godfrey On Jan 29, 2007, at 8:36 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Some nice pics there.
