don't need more than 1, one of it just sitting in dry cabin.. but this lens hard to find in SG mah (especially before it become popular again). Those who owns it, take good care of it, KM has no more spare part of it.. so once broken.. bye bye!

seriously, any comments on the KM 75-300mm lens?
am waiting for 70-210 f4 lobang or if I cant wait may settle for the Sigma 70-300mm APO lens. I know the 70-210mm is better but the wait is killing me............

i got both 75-300 & 70-210, but i'd say, the 70-210 is damn sharp, maybe its due to my level up (experience level increase... pring pring pring...lvl 2)

i now uses manual focus most of the time, unlike last time uses AF, i find that using AF, sometimes the point of sharpness is not what you want. i've tried the Sulhan method of setting the Digital FX, the pictures appear more vibrant as to my previous shots, not sure if its the 70-210 or the Digital FX, cos i only use the 7D with the 70-210 yesterday...

i think it's the Digital FX and not the 70-210 lens....so sell me your 'worthless' 70-210 quick!
