It's a zoom for those who can't be bothered. Sigh.
I don't look forward to CR Kennedy strapping this to the next camera I buy.
What exactly is a "hyperzoom"?
I have the 17-70 and it's wonderful. The 50-500mm is said to have outstanding quality for it's range (but of course you're getting distortion with that).
