I after using the 300 f2.8 for a full week with no problems I thought I would revisit the prospect of hand holding the 200-400VR and I feel as positive about it as I did about the 300 f2.8 a few weeks ago. My spindley arms have now turned into tree trunks!
A great thing about 200-400VR is a clear flat glass lens protector, like a UV filter that screws over the front element. I am thinking of one for the 300f2.8 but I see it has a "protective meniscus front element" However it did not protect mine from all sorts cleaned off each evening the past week.
Does anyone know how a meniscus front element is protective and can it be removed or renewed?
