I am looking for a used 300mm nikon lens. At KEH they have some good deals. Should I get a "bargain" ED lens or an "EX+" non ED lens at the same price.
Obviously I'll call and get details before I buy, but wanted some thoughts here first.
Thanks,
Chris

Chris, I have dealt with KEH for years and what they call "bargain" most others try to pass as excellent+++ to mint, so they are very conservative in their ratings. Go with the ED, especially for astro work, as they are sharper wide open.
