[QUOTE="SkvLTD, post: 145180, member: 12855"] lol this thread began to derail pretty early on for this forum, but anyways, my newbie take on this- quite a few modern plastic formulas are tough as literally nails, but im almost completely positive its nowhere near camera lenses due to "cost". only comparable lenses i have so far is my 1966 50 f2 and 35 1.8g. is metering and af nice to have, esp for sports? heck yea! does lens feel better than old 50? hardly. optically? i learned what fringing is for the first time with the G, lol. if i could get metering/cpu on oldies, id be all over them, but its just indispensable to me about half the time, so im stuck using newer glass to avoid missing shots.
