atournas Posted February 2, 2015 Share #1 Posted February 2, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) I posted a question about the 80-200mm f/4 that was removed, apparently by a moderator who wrongly took it as a sale post. Perhaps because someone expressed an interest to buy it, to whom I did NOT answer. My question was different--I wanted to know if the lens is in demand, so I could consider advertising it in the right page! A no-brainer plain post. I would appreciate If I could have it reposted.

topoxforddoc Posted February 2, 2015 Share #2 Posted February 2, 2015 The 80-200/4 ROM is a great lens; some view it as a mini 70-180 APO. It has excellent performance and is one the Leica lens "bargains". It's in demand at the moment from M240 owners. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted February 2, 2015 Share #3 Posted February 2, 2015 I reviewed the post ( not removed by me) and I agree with the moderator that it reads like an ad. Could you start a new thread with a less a ambivalent post please Come to think of it, you just did;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't be surprised with myself if I keep it in the end! I reviewed the post ( not removed by me) and I agree with the moderator that it reads like an ad.

jip Posted March 1, 2015 Share #5 Posted March 1, 2015 (edited) I really enjoy the 80-200 rom f/4 on my R8 and M240... Here are some examples: Digital with M (Typ 240): Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! Film with R8: I really like the lens in general, but the focus ring is so light that sometime focus shifts by just aiming the lens down a bit.... so you really have to keep your fingers on the focus ring and keep it still. Might be my copy but I bought it brand new in the box never used so I think this is how the lens behaves when new...
