The M200 is a wonderful lens, and you've made very good use of it. Oh
and by way I hate you.

Yet another flying swan pic, this one from yesterday. I was getting
tired of carting around long zooms; they're so big and heavy and
fiddly. So my kit was the *istD, the Pentax M 200mm f4.0 and the
Tamron SP 90mm f2.5 Macro. Both nice light, easy to carry lenses.
I'm quite impressed with the M 200mm. It's noticeably sharper than
either zoom I use. This photo is about a 25% crop (is that right? I
mean to say I cropped out about 75% of the original frame). Given
that amount cropped, plus I was shooting manual focus and panning, I'm
pretty happy with how sharp this is:

I'm happier with this than the flying swan pic from the other day
taken with the heavy Tokina 80-200mm f2.8 zoom:

Anyway, hope you like. Comment if you will.
cheers,
