Woot, the long-awaited SONY 70-300mm F4.5-5.6 G SSM lens finally arrived here in Hong Kong last night and I got mine this morning. Initial feeling, light, way lighter than I anticipated. Price is HK$5,480 (US$703)(cash price, EPS would incur additional 1% service charge) at Citicall. For now, let’s look at some pics (included measurement comparisons), enjoy.
Posted some test pics up, link here.

ASUS Eee PC, one with 8-inch display on the left and 7-inch display on the right (pic from Eee PC News)
Now tell me the 8-inch screen isn’t better. The ASUS Eee PC with 8-inch screen is slightly bigger than the one with a 7-inch screen. For more pics including size comparison pics, hop over to Eee PC News.
