                        I find this rather difficult to believe.  The
F5's ability to lock and alter focus is perhaps faster but the 300/4
Nikkor's AF operation is amongst the slowest around and in my experience
cancels out much of the F5's prowess.

              Ici, ils ont raison.  C'est un objectif fantastique, meme
avec les TC14E et 20E.
