Well, I think nobody expects a "perfect" 28-300mm. Let's hope that it is "decent enough".

Sure. I'm just afraid that many simply won't unerstand the issue and use it for senseless Nikon bashing, like that they try to fool and rip off their customers, did this on purpose or whatever ... like it happened with the 70-200 VR II.
Actually, I think it's a nice feature to be able focus that close, even if it only gives the equivalent of a 90 mm lens. And of course it won't rival a dedicated macro lens in sharpness (probably far from it).
Looking forward to review the lens, even though it will be a lot of work <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
