Talk:Minolta AF Reflex 500mm f/8

Bias

"The 500mm focal legnth of this lens would normally make it ideal as a lens for photographing wildlife, and in particular, birds. However, the f/8 aperture is far too slow for this purpose, far slower than the highly regarded Canon EF 500mm L IS with an f/4 aperture. It should be noted that the Canon alternative costs in excess of US$5000, out of the reach of most consumers."

This seems to be very biased. Unless someone has an objection, I will rewrite it. Gtstricky^{Talk or C} 19:45, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

The slowness of this lens is to some extent compensated for by the ability of modern, digital SLR cameras to be used at higher ISO settings at will. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.242.147.20 (talk • contribs)
