It has made me look good time after time since I got the R8 and I'm thoroughly convinced it must be one of the finest metering systems this side of Mars. It's just marvelous how well it computes the settings and creates perfect exposures time after time, particularly in the most difficult of light situations! <<<Has anyone compared Leica's two medium telephoto zoom lenses (the 80-200 and the 70-180)?>>> Well there isn't much comparison to be made with the 70-180 as it's an absolutely incredible lens and I don't imagine there are many, if any, to match it! I've only heard and read good things about the 80-200 and I don't think you can go wrong with it from what I've heard. But maybe others online have hnd one attached to their camera and have "real time" experience to quote from. ted
