Lines: 17 Xref: watmath net.astro:737 net.rec.photo:1435 I am under presure from a dealer to try a SAKAR 75-300 lens. I find that the photo mags have prices for SAKAR that are > Sigma/Vivitar. However, I am a bit reluctant to buy this rather dark horse company. How do the SAKAR lenses compare w/ the others? (Tamron is out of my budget for the time being). Please mail me any experiences/comments; I'll be happy to redirect replies to any interested parties. Thanx in advance. - Amitabha Mukerjee (khuto) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ UUCP: ..!{allegra, decvax, seismo}!rochester!amitabha ARPA: amitabha@rochester.arpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
