Any photographers with Ultrasonic lenses?

nope sorry

Speaking of pics is your avatar you husker?

Is this new, Quinn, or about what Minolta had in the late '80s? At that time, I didn't think they were worth the price, though I got the girlfriend of the moment one of them and she loved it, maybe because it was paid for. I used to have a lens 75 - 200mm, and it was fine by itself, mostly because the zoom and focus were handled by the same sleeve - twist to focus and push-pull to zoom. For the same camera, I had a 35 - 70mm with separate controls. It were a pain in the neck.

What am I doing here with my obsolete information? Ask Boomerang and get a good answer.

Actually, its just really a high powered quiet motor...Canon calls it Ultrasonic. Above that they have the image stabalizing lenses...which I dont think I could EVER justify but, you know..yeah..Id take one if someone wanted to you know..give me one.
Ive never 'treated' myself to and Ultrasonic though, and actually found a deal on one in the range Im looking at...so, I dont know..I guess I wanted to get some feed back.
I wonder if the motor makes it heavier, if they are better made-like more sturdy, and if they really are that much more quiet to be worth it.
In this case its like 30.00 more than the regular so, I could go for it but, you know...if I got a lot of feedback that it wasnt worth it in anyway...why spend the 30.00?
I've been thinking..yeah, its only 30.00 more but, its a savings of like 250.00 so, in general...its a big leap.
What if I get this one and find out I really really want more of these...then Id be making a whole lot of trouble for myself.

thanks for stopping in anyway
maybe boomer will stop by...but, the only one I thought had Canon was Husker, and Im not really sure about that....
the mind is the first thing to go.

yep

i want a Canon - I saw a special at State Street Direct on a Canon.

Camera here - but I want a larger lens - 28-105mm f/3.5-4/5

That seems like a reasonable wish...you could have my thoughts of grandure

Mom made the mistake of asking me what I want for my birthday...I think Ill send her the lens link and see what happens

I could send her that camera link...it could be enough to send her into the hospital though, so Im thoughtful at least.

Quinn
that's to much momey - but if Mom is buying - can I get adopted for my birthday? Pleeeese

I can only imagine what I could do with that and a good lens.

Yeah, I could do great wonderous things with something like that as well. Since thats more than my car is worth...Im guessing Im not getting one of those anytime soon.
A wish list however is a wish list...let the wishing continue.
Mom would adopt however, I dont think fine gifts would be involved...she always wanted a son...or grandkids, or both
