    Re: Any Real Reason To Favor One Particular Lens Line?

    Back in the day a friend got a very good price on a 150mm Sonnar with a 1/16" chip on the rear element. After consulting a couple LA camera gurus we covered the chip with a dot of black paint then tried to find a problem with the lens, never did.

    Sticking to one filter size 52mm or 67mm is a good idea. As long as you have a modern multicoated lens the results are going to be similar. The advantage of Fujinon is they have a bunch of focal lengths and small sizes not replicated by other makers.

    I have the Fujinon 400mm Tele, very sharp, very good price. It's a true tele, infinity focus is way less than 400mm. Almost got the 600mm but a 600 Nikon convertible came along...
