Yes Birddy, it is something unique with only 20 sold. At least the whole forum wont have one Price a bit outside my budget, think for the money your 200-400 is probably better, and half the price. Time moves on

I agree with Glen here on that one. I'd much rather the 200-400VR or the Sigma 300-800

200-400 is probably, but I really don't know, moving up in quality from that lens, the 300-800 is quite a tumble down in quality. Aim high

Lower quality but better reach. Plus the review I saw of the 300-800 and the shots taken were quite good.

If I had the money I'd like both. However I don't, so I can just dream for the time being

The cost of this lens is a new drama, its accessories and gears to work with it, are also another big bang for your deep pocket!
