I never felt the need for long lenses , 35 through 100 suited me fine in Minolta SRT land !
However , I now have a 40-150 zoom for the L1 , and have enjoyed the 135 f 3.5 Rokkor , effectively 270mm .
I am thinking taking out the equivalent 80-300 only , to see how I get on .
It's a somewhat strange modee'fication of my one lens policy [ 50 / 67 ] for the M8 following on from decades of using 50s on SLRs .
ASD is more comfortable with a fixed , unchanging , frame rather than the alteration of a zoom , but I am becoming more OK with kit zooms for the L1 , K10d , and more recently , Pananasonic G1 , so this will be a new experience for me .
80 , albeit at the lower end of a heavier lens , is within my comfort zone , but 200/300 certainly is not , so it should be interesting .
It's all pixels now as work seems elusive , but emMa8 keeps the manual tradition alive , and the L1 pretends it's a proper SLR with a shutter speed dial , LOL .
