at the low end, 70 is essentially useless for anything even vaguely close up. so that leaves me mostly looking at the high end.
when i'm zooming in on something far off like that, thus far it has almost always been relatively well lit, and someplace where i can have a monopod/tripod. so the lower light and faster shooting aren't all that meaningful, given the special purpose of the lens.
but, that's based on what i tend to do when i'm zooming. for example, stonehenge wasn't really going anywhere, and it was outdoors on a sunny day. so for that, being able to get that much closer to the details in the stones would be neat.
