from wat i learn n heard..the shorter range, the better sharpness...thats why most premium lens come with shorter range like 16-35mm, 17-50mm, 70-200mm..

correct me if im wrong..
u cant find any about the tamron 28-105mm f2.8 rite? so i attach the pic of the lens..but in A mount lah..the lens owner is hanafinoor..

alpha_company, there are two parts to AF speed:

1) recognizing what to focus on and how far to turn focus (helped by a brighter lens e.g. F2.8)

2) turning the lens to the focus point (depends on lens or body motor, focus group weight, focus range and focal length)

However, some lenses have a slow in-lens motor e.g. the Canon 50mm F1.2 and 85mm F1.2. So even though it can detect focus fast, it doesn't get into focus as fast. Now the slow motor isn't a bad thing, as it needs accuracy when focusing.

bysquashy, it is the Sony 70-300mm F4.5-5.6G SSM.

SpOOkY, it's not known for sure if the Sony sensors are rated F5.6 though for some reason they work with the F6.3 of the 18-200mm/18-250mm and the F8 of the 500mm F8. The 500mm F8 is modified however to be compatible with a bigger baseline sensor. The A700 and A900 have a F2.8 sensor in the middle plus 2 cross-type sensors for 5 times the AF performance in the center.

albnok where to check the specs? May i know whether d90 has f2.8 af sensor? D90 has 1 cross type sensor only...which is the middle.. not sure top and bottom though but left and right definitely no..haha..tried focusing on a straight black line and it went rclxub.gif

Should i opt for a Sandisk Extreme iii 4GB card costing RM138 or Kingston 133x 8GB costing me only about RM100 for my a200?

dont worry about memory cards if u r not going to burst. I bought a SanDisk III 30mbps 4GB, then i realize that i wasted money and should get a normal SDHC with 8gb or 16gb instead.
