And another vote for the 80-400 (or longer) in DA* guise.

I also like the idea of a quality Pentax split prism focus screen that allows accurate spot metering without exposure compensation.

Granted since WSB is no longer the full contact bloodsport it used to be.

(I have looked into THOSE eyes :wink
Absolutely, really looking forward to this season now that Stoner looks like he's back and on top form.

Like you I used to follow WSB closely too but it does seem to have taken a definite second to MotoGP now.

Yes, it's a very nice lens and gets a strong recommendation from me. Only slight weakness is the SDM speed.

Difficult one James, I've heard good reports about both but never owned either (although I briefly played with a 16-45). I guess that doesn't help much
I think you may find a spread of recommendations for both lenses....

Any particular reason you're not considering the DA 17-70?

Interesting, so it goes to show that if you are using filters it's probably worth investing in the top quality Hoya SMC Pro range.

Does 'look' spot on but doesn't mention weather sealing anywhere.
