Mike was making a tongue-in-cheek comment and tagged it appropriately with a smiley.

There were no personalities involved.

Is that really necessary Shaun?

What difference does the gap between 200 to 300 make, if any at all?
It can't make no difference at all, but in terms of birds the longer lens will be far more useful.

It does save having to decide "with or without" when we buy our new camera. I see nothing negative in that.

I don't see where the three times the cost comes into it? You'd have to compare intro prices for both (possible) or final street prices for both (not yet possible)to have a fair comparison.

Clearly time to get back to the subject.

Not really unpredictable Nigel. It doesn't rear its ugly head generally, so it would only be where very fine repeating detail was present that it would be worth a check. At 16MP. We shall see how the K-3 behaves in due course.

It's helpful if the first time we use the proper phrase and thereafter an abbreviation.

For example, I might want to discuss depth of field (DOF) and then, having defined it, I can use DOF for the rest of a post. If that expanded to DOF and depth of focus then a new problem of clarity arises...

It will be down to experience Nigel. I would expect to use it switched off, but then in some circumstances switch it on. There wouldn't be many based on my experience so far, but that's with a 16MP sensor. With a 24MP sensor the game may well be different.
