Nice, for when we used to have 2mp cameras (... the year 2000)? How about making higher res. images available? Wink

Flare performance doesn't seem good

Is there any tele lens with a good backlit performance? I haven't met any ...

Sorry, I'm always forgetting to lift the photo protection. [Done]
The Nikkor AF-S 70-200m f2.8 E FL VR has made an improvement in that area compared to the lens it replaces, and that replaced lens already did better than the Canon EF 70-200mm f2.8 IS USM II, concerning veiling. The IS USM III is supposed to have improved there (it has updated to better newer coatings).

I have doubts here ... 
The issue with tele lenses and flare is not just about coating. I suspect this relates to the number of large optical elements that magnify the flare/glare.
