I borrowed an R8 to try out the 180 f2 ....and as BD broke the flood gates open for dog pix :^) ...I took the 180 and R8 when we took the greyhounds and Hurrican Erinn (my 3.5 yr old daughter) out for a run this weekend. HEY! BD, I Showed Tiagh the picture of your MIT girl and it seems he has a thing for tall, dark French women with curly hair :^) http://www.straylight.ca/download.htm Conclusion? The R8 is a great camera and I wouldn't mind having one... But I think I'm going to hold out and look for a R6 or R7 with a drive. The 180 f2 is even better than the Nikkor 200 f2 I used to own.... And THAT was a great lens. And just to start another "discussion", I have never found a better camera+motor combination than the Nikon F3 and MD4. I miss them. :^) Greg Locke St. John's, Newfoundland www.greglocke.com ----JUST RELEASED------- NEWFOUNDLAND ...journey into a lost nation by Greg Locke and Michael Crummey McClelland and Stewart ISBN # 0-7710-6142-0
