Hello Nikoneers. Does anyone have any news on the light grey AF-S telephoto lenses? -------------------------- On the F80, I'm just guessing. But maybe, it would be the replacement of the F70. Primary controls might be similar to the F5 and F100. On-off,light switch with shutter button, Exposure mode button, Wide/spot AF button, Exposure comp button, DOF preview button, AF-AE lock button, command dial, sub-command dial all within reach of the right thumb or shutter finger. Drive speed, ISO, Flash, Vari-program, self-timer, metering mode, and rewind via two hand operation. Push button and turn wheel or push two buttons to activate. It might come with built-in 3D Matrix Balanced Fill-Flash, Wide/Spot AF module, 4fps drive. No PC socket, no computer link capability, and available in only standard or date-back version. In short, it will be an F70 with the F5,F100 user interface. -------------------------- On my lens wish list. Looking at what Nikon could give us with that smaller than Canon EF, Nikon F-lens mount, I came up with this wish list. I revised the 105mm to have an opening of 1.8... because they were already able to do it. If Nikon comes up with an 85mm f/1.2 or a 50mm f/1.0 then good. But working on what they already have and improve on it, they should be able to come up with the following lenses in no time. AF-S Nikkor 28mm f/1.4D IF AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.2D IF AF-S Nikkor 85mm f/1.4D IF AF-S Nikkor 105mm f/1.8D IF (I thought 2.0 was their fastest, I forgot about the 1.8) AF-S Nikkor 180mm f/2.8D IF-ED AF-S Nikkor 300mm f/4.0D IF-ED Happy shooting.
