 Originally posted by seventysixersfan  awesome demonstration!! I wonder if the DA 18-135 WR or D FA 100 WR would stand up to the same conditions as his 50-135, 16-50?  I do have the 100mm, so I may add that to the test next time I do it (winter so I can also add snow/freezing conditions). My assumption is that they would stand up to the same, especially the DFA 100 WR - I've had it pretty covered in dust before (not intentional), and no issues. The only difference (read: my assumption) would be that they would require a more immediate need to be cleaned/rinsed off, whereas the DA*'s would be able to focus and most likely zoom (after a quick rinse). Glad you guys enjoyed the video -Heie | |
