I can only repeat the rhapsodic evaluation I gave some time ago on this
list -- the 200 mm f/5.0 is a wonderful lens. The images one can make
with it are very crisp, with a very appealing three-dimensional quality
to them.

>Anyone tried both?    

Unhappily, I haven't. Hence I am merely a biassed observer of one of
them.

>Er, anyone have a really nice f/5 for sale?!

If you can  wait until I depart this world, and you are strong enough to
pry it from my cold, frozen fingers, then... [grin].
