A shop in Toronto has a VR1 in mint condition for $3999 can. Is that a good price?

Hi Zerga,

Beautiful shot!

Could you share shooting data on aperture/shutter speed/ISO used? How far were the subjects from camera?

Thanks, this was at f/2 1/400 ISO 200, natural light. I think I was about 30ft away from them.

ISO is 250, not 200

Search for, and install an EXIF viewer plug-in for your browser, and you will be able to simply right-click on the picture and view its EXIF data (unless it is blocked, e.g., for links posed via Flikcr)

This is simply not sarcasm but frankly a reality check. With a lens weighs over six pounds and costs nearly six grand new, I do hope those who use it can produce a print that can command at least mid three-digit figure (if not four-digit or more figures) in the marketplace. Otherwise, it's just a tool that misfits in Biz sense.

LoL." Mid three-digit figure (if not four-digit or more figures)"
No sarcasm intended either and speaking for myself and photographers I know personally, the 200G is what puts money on the table......You are talking 25k per day for a team of 3 people (2 photographers and one editor) for Fashion shoots and Runways and that's before royalties and before talking Beauty and Editorials!
I don't know what the Sports and Action people charge as I am not into that with the rare exception.

I do not shoot for print strictly speaking as the end clients manages this part with their Ad/PR agencies.

Maybe you have a look at Getty images and others. Check the Exif in the Fashion images for 200mm/300mm/400mm/200-400mm.......In this line of business, we are under NDA and cannot post our pics.....for few years!

This is on the commercial side, and there are many others who use the 200G for their Art or Family or Recreation.....they do not need to sell the prints to anybody.

Nisa, I've noticed a change in your photos lately. A different feel, different processing. A conscious change? trying something new? I still love them, just wondering.

Also, I took a look through the Modellink website....Unbelievable talent. From top to bottom. You're lucky to have access, but you deserve it due to the quality of your work.
