Thanks for the info, Hans.
Yes, I was aware of your link http://www.panoramas.dk/d60/index.html
That page is what initially made me interested in the Sigma 8mm.
I was particularly impressed at how sharp your panos were with only
a few shots. I'm assuming that the Fuji S2 + Sigma should give
similar results, which is why I was asking 'photoboy' whether he was
happy with his equipment.
BTW, I had noticed the old Nikon 8mm sometimes on ebay, but
I'm not really sure about that kind of thing. Who would want to get rid
of a great lens like that, unless there was something wrong with it. It
seems a bit risky...
Anyway, thnx for the info.
Eric
