My copy does not need to be stopped down at 50-150. From 150 to 200 main issue is a loss of contrast that can Always be fixed in LR. Anyway a faster aperture would have been welcome in the 50-100 zone. At 200 mm i found myself shooting over f6.3 For Field size reason (keep all the subject in the focus plane...).
On the other hand i have a small body (nx1100) so the 50-200 is already Too big without any faster aperture.

If you find a good copy is a good compromise between size, Price, reach and IQ. A keeper.
