Absolutely! This lens, as I have said many times, is a sleeper. This is a
keep forever lens. Lightweight, very very sharp (there is APO glass in the
lens formula), and stays sharp with a 2x extender to = 700mm! I used this
lens mostly on a tripod with Velvia, but now with the new 200 and 400
chrome films, this lens can be used easily any way you want.
