Yes, not all of us can affford $4000 glass......! I am honestly trying to figure out if the older and more reasonably priced lens, when mounted for Nikon F, will give me something special.......compared to a 300 F2.8 Tamron SP lens with 2x extender ( special version for this lens) , which costs about the same as the 400 F5.6 or 6.8 Telyt from about 1970 or so.............. Does anyone in the general LA area have one of these 400 F5.6 or 6.8 lenses and a R seomething and would be willing to meet me for what I call a nerd test? I will bring my 300 Tamron and a Nikon F4, and the film....... Thanks Frank Filippone red735i@earthlink.net - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
