You got it, David! If I do get the 60~250, I won't let this go 'til I check the two lenses against each other. I seriously doubt that the 80~320 will equal it in res/contrast, plus, the 60~250 is an f/4 constant aperture. I only paid $189 + shipping (Keh as I recall) and it is as new. Unblemished

Thanks, Marnie. I agree with your choice. I took a look at the two and pulled them up looking for grain. I found a little in the second (shot at 240 mm), but not 'til it got scary big. ;) Both shot at 200 ISO as noted. Jack --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: In a message dated 11/27/2007 9:12:53 A.M.
