I see he used the model with the white focus-ring.... :lol:

There looks to be a lot of glass in that lens....hope it wasn't too heavy !

I've heard the smaller lenses are good glass, like the one displayed, but the bigger zooms (ie 1250ml/mm and the 2000ml/mm) are a bit plasticky. I've also heard the 2x converters change coke into pepsi. Is there any truth in these rumours?

I don't care about VR but, if it's an AF-S bottle, I'm interested.

Apparently, these are often used with a ND64 Coke-in filter...

*Ba-dum tish*

Actually, that's the ED model as it's glass.

Get yourself one of the Coke buddy's and you'll have a nice plastic G series model. :lol:
