<< Others on this mailing list have weighed in with opinions about the 200mm
(mostly trashing the lens, although I seem to remember at least one person
saying it was a fab lens). I think it's fabulous, certainly, and have
captured some very nice hand-held images with it. I'd like to try it with a
high-quality teleconverter someday. >>
I have the 200f5 and find it the exact length for shooting
waterskiiers/wakeboarders offf the back of the boat. Prefocus, stop down to
f8 or f5.6, meter off the skiier's face, then anticipate the moves. Put a
motor winder on and shoot away.
