    Just received from Japan a mint new FD 200 f 2.8. Mounted it on my F-1 new, and was surprised at the weight of the camera and lens combo. Years ago I shot with an F-1 and T-90s. Don't remember anything being this heavy. The lens is beautiful, described as mint, it is and with a 72mm filter attached.

    Dave, the memories of our youth do not match up with what we can do in our later ages, still you have a very nice camera/ lens combo.
