Having looked at the responses he got to his query over at the LUF, it’s obvious that he was getting more thoughtful and more detailed information about the characteristics of various lenses over there, without being sidetracked into a focus on cost. Plus, the tenor over there was frankly nicer, sad to say, that observation being hard to escape if one reads the threads from both forums.
Though I am aware that people over there tend to be less bothered by price points than they are here, and they just focus on the actual attributes of things and generally leave cost out of it. Though, that in itself just makes them “fanboys” to some.
Anyway, the different tenor of the threads on the two forums was interesting.
I don’t go over there much as it is too rich for my blood, but they do know their lenses.
