I see people complaining about not having the high end zoom here, but hey I've NEVER been able to see anything sharp through that zoom lens at that mag in the field.... you have got to be joking ! This could be the first zoom lens that I rated highly on spec for field of view and clarity all the way from 25 to 50 though, which probably explains why I've always used a fixed mag.  Anyone know if it's on sale yet ?  Anyone bought one ?  Anymore feedback welcome !Good birding, Mark Pearman</blockquote>
