Not to change the subject too much or join in the film vs. digital debate,
but have you looked into digiscoping. There is a lot of info on the web.
Here is an example:

I just lowered the prices and relisted the 350 on evilbay. I was thinking
you might want the 350 to photograph the lovely Anna but you probably don't
want to get that far away from her. <g> If you want to keep the cost down,
something you might try is the B&L Discoverer scope. It has a good camera
adapter. I have one that I use as a spotting scope but have never tested the
photographic image quality.

Hmm, well... for the money of one 350/2.8 I think I can buy a very nice
scope or two, maybe even three... But I'll look in to your page.
Thanks // Johan
