    :jawdrop That's why I don't cruise ebay. I don't need to know lenses like that exist. :cry

    same reason one would want the 200 1.8 from canon:

    * indoor gymnastics
    * hockey
    * any indoor activity in a large facility with poor lighting
    * outdoor portraits where you want to totally obscure the bg
    * outdoor (or large large studio) creative work
    * any of the above that require uber-sharpness

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    You guys..
    ..never stop to amaze me..

    $11K.. *all* my computer/photography hardware/software *together* does not cost that much, and this is just *a* lens..

    I guess I better stick with my "small" camera, "it's a rich men's world" (Abba):):, it does not look that I qualify for it (yet)..

    The original 300/2 was made for the 1984 Olympics, and in 1990 sold for about $20,000. There was no Ebay then.
