Saw a thread on one of the mailing lists I was on. In Superman Returns, Jimmy Olsen uses a Nikon D2 series camera and an 80-400 VR to catch Superman in action. :Grin: I haven't seen the movie yet myself!

Superman is faster than a speeding bullet, and a Nikon is faster than Superman? :D

Nice link Gerry. I've been waiting for pics of Jimmy with his Nikon. But the 80-400 VR has been known to focus slow. Magaling din si Jimmy!

When will this movie be shown? Can't wait to see it on the BIG screen - in an iMax Theater preferably!!

If the lens has slow focus, maybe Superman is "purposely" posing for Jimmy Olsen
