Which Gary? If not me, I'll bite anyways. The longer one is for the 35-70mm
f/3.6 List it for sale here and you are SURE to get a buyer since I have that
one my "watch for" list. The shorter is for the 35-70mm f/4.0 The longer one
makes sense when you see how the f/3.6 barrel moves in relation to the focal
length selected. A real nifty design!
