The front element telescopes in and out but does not rotate. Polarizers are no problem. It's a very fat lens and weighs a lot. It's optics are outstanding. It's the normal zoom to which all others are compared. There have been rumors that it may be replaced next month at Photokina. I would wait until after Photokina, the end of September, before I decide.
