It seems that they are trying to make ebay totally useless

If you put in Tamron 70-210mm you used to get a listing showing
all the matches.... now you get a listing under which they have
grouped the lenses (using their criteria) and you get 5 available...
2 available... 1 available etc.

Then when you click 5, 2, or 1 you get a further list, but
under the same tab..... which loses all the others
Also you don't see any photos if there are multiple items
in the group I thought the idea of the photos was
to sell the items?

It's the similar with completed listings.... you click an
item to see the original listing..... they decide you DON'T
really want to see the original listing so they show you another
page that has a selection on it to see the original listing
that you wanted to see in the first place.

All this is just going to slow down peoples browsing and they
will only have time to buy less stuff.....

It will help with the PITA posters who post hundreds
of listings of the same item such as an SDHC card
but ebay should have just banned that practise years
ago.

I'm not a fisheye fan, but the 2nd shot is really nice

I wasn't saying it was bad, in fact the 1st bird is as
good as you going to get of a sparrow

The focus looks to be on the brown leaf above its head?

It's same as a Vivitar with a SN beginning with 28.
£30 is OK if it has an 'A' setting, without £20-£25.

Should perform OK.

Sigma do a 17-50 f/2.8 with HSM & OS I wonder what that's like?

That's a nice hat on the 2nd sparrow Stan

Excellent lens I'm sure that you'll quickly find some
more interesting subjects

For someone interested in low light performance I can't see
any low light f/1.4's or f/1.7's on your list? I would have
thought that would have been the 1st thing to look into
instead of a Canon 5D mkIII

It might help if you say which country you want
it posted to

Next post.........



I hope that really wasn't a reply!

They should also push the fact that SR is available for ALL
lenses..... Most Canikon users don't have much available
in wide angle with SR. The SR on the K-30 has also been
improved over the K-5.... it would be impossible for
Canikon users to achieve better AF without buying another
copy of an already expensive lens with improved SR.

Maybe Pentax should use the slogan
"Pentax the Camera for Pessimists"
Just look at how many already use it!
