While that lens is a legend, it can never achieve 4.5 optical rating on photozone!

Then the 1200mm f/5.6, lol.

I'd put that in the same bucket as the 50mm f/1.0, or even worse, since its point isn't to provide high optical quality...



While the 1200mm is certainly legendary, even if they got one I'd suspect the testing might prove rather problematic...



I am having some difficulty coming up with untested "legendary" lenses with AF...

So... it is white, and not a Canon (not the 200mm f2/f1.8 L, 70-200mm f2.8 L IS USM II/f4 L IS USM are tested already and too new to be legends anyway, 100-400 L tested already too, 70-200mm f4 L USM is very nice but 4.5 stars and a legend?)?



Or... the 300mm f2.8?

Does anyone else make white lenses? Not necessarily currently... wasn't there some old Nikon whites? Minolta? Or is that possibly getting too old to be relevant today.



I would welcome a 100-400L retest on APS-C...

Well, light grey, not white. And only 3 of them: AF-S 70-200 VR I, AF-S 300/4 and AF-S 28-70/2.8



All tested already <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Wink' />

It has to be a bit old to be a kind of legend...



As 400mm is the limit, there still might be another 400mm lens... like the 400mm f4 L DO IS USM.



Nikon made a 70-200mm f2.8 VR in white, but that lens is hardly a legend, and it would be Markus to review it.

Sony/Minolta's 70-80-200mm f2.8G lenses were white, and the 200mm f2.8 HS APO G too (and other 200, 300, 400, 500, 600mm teles)



So uhmmm... is it the Canon 300mm f2.8 L IS USM? The Canon 400mm L IS DO USM? The Minolta 200mm f2.8 HS APO G?
