But you being really a wildlife living in the landscape thing.... But the S2 handling just like a 35 DSLR on one or two steroids. So far no lens is near long enough I'd think. I'm not remembering many wildlife shooters shooting Brownie film you'd think 645 might do it in the handling department but perhaps again the glass never got long enough. For an S2 lens getting long enough you'd have to be NASA the FBI or No Such Agency to be able to afford it. Seems to me. Mark William Rabiner
