The gap between 42 and 70 can be quite useful. Recently, at Goodwood Festival of Speed, I found myself having to take off the 70-300mm for the 45-150mm as the former was too close to frame my shots. On the other hand, the longer lens certainly comes into its own in other situations. For lightness and convenience, I think I would stick with the two kit lenses. The zoom offered at 150mm is pretty good anyway for most situations.




Ahh, Goodwood. I haven't been there for years.

I used to go there occasionally for track days. It was a very, very fast track, and from memory, it was about the only short circuit that I could use Isle of Man gearing on and get the bike flat in top on the long back straight.

Not too much run off though, so not a good place to make a mistake.

I seem to remember getting round in about 1 minute twenty something on the TZ350, but I have no idea what a 'respectable' lap time is there these days.

Happy days.
