Its not just a real fast lens. Its a special purpose lens. If that's the case. Most people shooting the smaller digital formats nowadays do so at surprisingly low ISO's, 100 even and rely on the vibration reduction in the lens or camera to make this possible and its very possible. How a high speed lens competes against this might be interesting. Perhaps there is VR in some of the body's this lens goes on I would think that would be the case. Are there aspherics in it? Seems like a bit of a monster! But f 0.95 AND BE THERE combined with anti vibration that's going to shoot a black cat at midnight on the dark side of Pluto. Giving the low light stuff people are getting now with a D3s a run for their money. [Rabs] Mark William Rabiner
