comment: | My fovorite and most used lens for many, many years. I bought it new with a 7000i back in the late 80's. It is the only lens from that original purchase that I have kept. This lens has produced many winning photographs over the years and is one of the best bargains out there. My was retired only when I picked up a bunch of primes that cover the range. Hard to part with this one though due to the quality images it produces. |
