I tell you this must be like the rarest still in production lens in the world.
Anyhow to salve my pain I have been on the look out for a reasonable large zoom. I had a brief affair with a shit Conica job which went 100-300 but it was terrible slow to focus and well just terrible.
I also have a Vivitar 80-200mm Which is actually quite nice, but manual so a lot of stuff on the D50 is lost.
In the end I put a bid in on this:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7601928862&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MEWN:IT&rd=1
I had read about the D version but its a bit pricey for me. Its worth pointing out I don't intend to get arty with this thing I am thinking shots of birds in the garden etc.
It arrived the very next day and I have to say I am chuffed to bits. It still not the quickest zoom ever but heck it seems to take a lovely shot, the pictures are really 3D is the best I can describe them, reasonable out of focus blur and a pleasure to use.
Here is a quicky, I am kind of stuck in the house waiting for carpet to be fitted in the new baby room so can't go and explore.
Anyway back to waiting for my damn prime lens.
