Hi,
may be that I´m stupid but I have a lot of problems with the search function.
For example if I´m looking for a Tokina f:2,8 28 mm I write the following term
Tokina AND 2,8 AND 28 mm
I will get 683 matches. 
But what is the correct term to find only - if available - information for a Tokina f:2,8 28 mm and not for all other Tokinas or all other lenses with f:2,8 or all other lenses with 28 mm ?
Many thanks in advance for your assistance.

Hi Rolf.
I try with "tokina 2.8 28" and clic on "Search for all terms".
I receive 684 replies.
Anything I try, I get these 684 replies.
OT : the landscape of the other day is shot from my house, so yes it's in Pas de Calais.

I think each search term needs to be three or four characters long.

Search terms need to be at least 3 characters EACH. A correct search returns 74 hits:
tokina AND 2.8 AND 28mm

My impressions: the search function finds all the terms, but a lot of people list all the lenses they have into their signature, and perhaps that's the lot of findings....not very useful that way.

The "AND" is assumed if you ask for all search terms. So
tokina 2.8 28mm
returns 78 matches (now 79). |
