Bill, I read recently that the last version of the 280mm f/4.8 M lens can also be used on the Televit. Have you had any experience with this combination (or has anyone else)? What I'm looking for is a fast-focus lens in the 250 to 300 range. The 400 f/6.8 Telyt is nearly ideal for my purposes but at times a shorter/faster lens would help. Lenses with a standard focusing = ring just don't do the job for me. - -Doug
