LOL - thery look interesting.

I love my S9000 but at 300mm the f/4.9 is a getting a little sluggish - at 660mm you're looking at something like f/8 at best, which won't be suitable for capturing fast cars unless the light is very bright... and of course that's not the best time to take pictures.

Do you know what the quality of these lenses is?

I have to do the same. The old manual focus Olympus OM-1 comes out. I have a 200mm f/2.8 which is ancient and a slightly slower 300mm (f/3.5) but with ISO800 film, it's fine for sports shots.
