Would not run for it, really not:

 

• The price already tells the difference and the buyer of my Sports who ad a Contemp confirmed that and sned me a picture
  
• I suspect the G2 is already equal to the Sports but comes with a better feature package
  
• and smaller weight
  
• also a dock connector to update firmware and customizing settings is avaliable
  

I already made my summary:

• current Telezooms in this range between 150 and 600 are better than any of these kind of lenses before
  
• price as indicator to make a decision is saying something about quality to be expected
  
• they are no competition in speed or IQ to modern primes but cost a fraction
  
• At the interesting long FL they show a bigger gap to primes
  
• but for occasional moon-pictures, sports in bright daylight with not much experienced sport photogs beginners they are great value
  

I will follow this thread because dave gets now first hand experience and I rate those meanwhile higher than test numbers. It was for me i.e. always bothering to be able to switch the focus min distance only from full to 5 m  - ∞ with the Fuji 100 - 400. Not to get a close range is less practical.
