World’s fastest telephoto—Nikon 200-400mm f/1.4 G ED

Looking for a fast telephoto zoom? See page 92 of the November, 2006 Outdoor Photographer with Nikon’s 200-400mm f/4 ED-IF AF-S zoom labeled as f/1.4! (Only 3 stops off).

That such a ridiculous error should actually make it to publication is not too surprising given that so much of the material in Outdoor Photographer is little more than a stale rehash of the manufacturer’s marketing hype—usually 3 months after the information was available on the web. Sometimes mistakes are made when keyboarding material from the brochure! :;

I have yet to see an equipment review from OP that provided any substantive insight into the performance of a lens or camera—no sense offending the advertising clientele! You get what you pay for.
