Re: All at sea

I was hoping I could join you. But I have other important business to attend, a job intervju in Josteins territory. Enjoy the trip, and don't be too hard on Jostein, he is probably doing his best :-) MaritimTim 2008/8/5 Cotty <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Just thought I'd mention that I'm off to meet up

Re: All at sea

That's just too many lenses, Cotty. A 15mm, a 24-70mm and a 70-200mm is all you need. Say hello to Jostein, whom I met in Copenhagen once, for me. regards jens -- Treat others as you would like to be treated yourself. On Aug 5, 2008 12:13 "Cotty" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Just thought I'd m

Have a great time! Jostein is an interesting and informative host. I met him for an evening in Oslo a few years ago, and it was a thoroughly enjoyable -- and informative -- session. Dan M On Tue, Aug 5, 2008 at 6:13 AM, Cotty <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Just thought I'd mention that I'm off to

All At Sea - Suggestions Wanted for Cheap Telephoto

animals fairly close up. And I want to do all that for about $100 (so good primes are out). And weight is a factor. Not too heavy. I am all at sea. I've looked at the 70-200 AF autofocus (several going on ebay). But that would be the same as the 28-70, I might not like the feel. A non-Pe

Re: All At Sea - Suggestions Wanted for Cheap Telephoto

Oh, we've become so good at the ragin' DSLR debate that we can do that on autopilot. The 200 M f4 is a nice lens and very cheap. Zooms have their places but they just aren't enlargement sharp. That looks like a distinct possibility (searched & found on ebay). Thanks -- I was sort of afraid no

Re: All At Sea - Suggestions Wanted for Cheap Telephoto

Hi! I happen to have Soligor 70-222/3.5 C/D lens. I've bought it second hand for $140. It means that in USA it would cost probably half as much. This is excellent lens, though it is on the heavy side. If you wish you can look in my home page for its review and some shots. AFAIK Soligor C/D series

Re: All At Sea - Suggestions Wanted for Cheap Telephoto

Hi, Boris, I have several Soligor lenses, both m42 and k-mount, and they're okay for what they are: inexpensive lenses to put on my bodies until I can afford to use better. Not that they're bad lenses, especially for what I paid. You mentioned the C/D series, and I have a screwmount 3.5 constan
