Peter, any word from your dealer on ship date?
They told me end of this month. However, that will probably turn out to be end of June.
So is anyone taking bets on whether this lens will either be a keeper for you, or the first 200-400 ever on the buy & sell boards?
If you\'re the first seller of a preowned copy, I guess that means you get first shot at setting the market value for a used one....
If IQ turns out to be kinda unremarkable, I\'d probably end up selling it at some loss, because my store doesn\'t accept returns of non-defective goods.
Even if the iq is not as good as 600 but better than 100-400, it will be f4, which means less motion blur in challenging light, it will be a success. My 100-400 is challenging in low light at f5.6. The plus 1.4 will only work well in the day time for me is my guess.
But I hope it is close to the 600. That would be great.
