[QUOTE="PapaST, post: 247380, member: 8330"] Hmmm, well that stinks. That discourages the return option. Do you have a local shop that you can heft it around and take a look at it? What about renting the lens? If neither of those are an option then I say just buy it. I'm guessing you've read everything you can about this lens so you at least have an idea how it rates with the general public. You're aware of the DX vs FX deal. If you're okay with all of that then what the heck... go out and get it. My last argument that I always use is, more than likely you'll get a decent amount back if you decide to sell the lens a year or two later. So if you buy the lens for $900, use the heck out of it and sell the lens a year or two later you'll get a decent portion back so it's not like throwing away money. It's all relative. ;) [/QUOTE]
