[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I was out today with one of the 400mm f6.8 Telyts with the shoulder stock and gun stock grip. I was a bit nervous taking it out in public in case somebody thought it was a weapon. The shot I posted was with the 400mm f2.8 APO-Telyt, which certainly doesn't look like a gun. Here is a cropped version of that shot which probably works better. http://www.robsteve.com/images/IRC/Boutin.jpg Regards, Robert At 09:08 PM 12/6/2002 -0800, Patrick Jelliffe wrote: >When I read your intro, I was thinking, "Hope this guy >wasn't near the VP's hotel!"
