[QUOTE="AntrimHills, post: 70977, member: 9936"] I remember many years ago a guy came into our photo store, and whilst talking to us said he had a 1200mm f1.2 lens for his camera, which he got at a car boot sale for £200. We argued with him it wouldn't be f1.2 nor would he get it for £200 even if it was, but wouldn't admit he was wrong. In the end he brought the lens into us, and we knew instantly it could never be f8 never mind f1.2. It was such a dark piece of glass, that even in bright sunlight, it was possible to only get about 1/60 second, and focusing was an absolute pain in the bum. My advice? Take Pedroj's advice! [/QUOTE]
