Hi,
I am in quest of my first telephoto lens for landscape applications, specificall y a Nikon 300mm M series lens (the T series is a bit out of my fiscal grasp). O n talking with B&H about the lens, they offered it for sale without a warranty.
Is buying a new lens without a (1 year) warranty a cause for concern? It'll sav e $40 over one with a warranty. Is the biggest risk the copal shutter (the only moving part) not working correctly at all speeds?
Thanks for all advice, Robert
