What's the longest lens you've ever shot with from a moving vehicle?
28-200 at 140km/h in Saudi Arabia. It was manual focus too. I think
my passengers were a little taken aback.

How is the Sigma for a carry/shooting/portrait lens?
Pretty good, although i prefer the FA* despite it's weight for better

Are there only three cameras with OTF metering then?
