Thanks Attila
Sometimes when i upload img the upload window does not finnish it does not show the " standard" or upload another image but the window stays blank but the blue bar at the bottom is full, but the image gets uploaded successfully
I have to open the gallery and insert image from there
Am i doing something wrong, or can it be my connection? |

Where did you get it?
Often $12 is not even enough to cover shipping.
The person who sold this to you, was selling this to you for a symbolic amount! |

That's great value!
I bought ours for about 26gbp, but it's not been used yet. I want to test it against my CZJ 135.

About 2 meters away ,they get spoiled rotten on a daily basis with a diet of mealworm and grated cheese when they have young ones in the nest
There are 3 pairs nesting closeby at this moment
They are very tame but always keep about 2 meter's distance |

Truly a good buy! I like this lens a lot. Shame on me I sold my copy.
I wouldn't be surprised if this lens' resolution can outperform the resolution of the 20D/30D matrices. |
