Well I turned down the offer of a 400f2.8 non VR AF-S at an attractive price the other day!! It was still the beast I remembered, it was fresh back from a tune up by Nikon.. But my 200-400 spends much of it's life in the vault these days, sadly!!!

And I do understand your arm issues JK, I add my knees and back to the mix!!

:doh:

Same here, Ray. But I just put the 200-400 in my car. Spring is just around the corner and I've driven by flocks of egrets that beg me to make a photo of them...

We'll see :-)
