Surely the definition of Vista is :-womble wrote:
A vista is:
1. a view or prospect, esp. one seen through a long, narrow avenue or passage, as between rows of trees or houses.
2. such an avenue or passage, esp. when formally planned.
3. a far-reaching mental view: vistas of the future.
From that definition I am not sure any of the shots submitted so far are vistas!

How interesting Kris, it HAS been bothering me what a VISTA is compared to a general view, I have been scratching my head as to what to go for, I now have a better idea, thank you!A vista is:
1. a view or prospect, esp. one seen through a long, narrow avenue or passage, as between rows of trees or houses.
2. such an avenue or passage, esp. when formally planned.
3. a far-reaching mental view: vistas of the future.

What is the normal rate for a new lens in the UK. When it is $800. I think I read somewhere that the rate is 1$ = 1 £ when it comes to camera and lens prices?
It used to be like that - a big rip off but now it is somewhat more realistic.hefty1 wrote:

Yeah my thoughts as well. Still it needs to be at this level to get the price that high from new.While $800 does sound steep, compared to the prices well-used FA*85's fetch it almost seems like a giveaway!

Although in the current financial climate, who knows how the prices will be set

If Nathan had the DA*300 then he would be really boasting - "300 incredible millimetres" Oh sugar, millimetres the man said, of course the da* is far bigger!

That sounds like some sort of deep insult - "You're one pixel short of a perfect square!" I'll have to think about that one!
