The AF080C is an excellent flash. It can be used on any lens with a 49 mm
filter ring and with adapters can take larger lenses up to 58mm, which would
include the 70-200 f4 zoom and even the more modern 100-300 af lenses. It is
probably recommended for the 50-100 macros because that is a

lenses (50/100 Macro etc). Why is that? Has anybody used it with
other, reasonably close-focusing or inverted lenses? I have the
FA50/1.7 and the 75-150/4 (inv) in mind, or the F28-80/3.5-4.5.
