Took back the 80-400mm lens because it would not auto focus with my d60. Exchanged for this 70-300mm lens and I am very happy with it. Sure its not 400mm but still has good zoom and is alot lighter. Anyone who wants good zoom without paying a arm and leg should check this out. Another cool feature I like is the manuel/auto focus, you can do both at the same time.

Very poor RF remote or Geek Squad poor programing
Bytaylor14314fromWashington DC Metro Area
Bought Acoustic Research RF remote about 1yr ago. Initially programmed and installed by geek squad. Remote started changing channels, flipping devices, as if short some where. Had geek squad come out to reprogram at my cost and continues with this problem. Geek squad tech on phone says its Acoustic Research device and can't help. ABSOLUTELY do not buy!!

Harmony's Better
September 22, 2011
You should have bought a Harmony instead of Acoustic Research. Harmony remotes are more reliable, easier to program and use, data base is updated more often. The MX remotes are good too but very difficult to program, would need tech who knows how to program one. Cost for programming one would cost 3 times as much because they are way more difficult than Harmony's. Not all techs know how to set up the MX's so if you buy another remote get a Harmony.

Game kept quitting
ByyazzledazzlefromAttica, IN
I was playing the game - awesome game, what I played - but then I started heading up stairs on the first level and it shut off and said it lost connection. This was one the campaign! I tried it again and again and again and again. Same stinkin thing! I got online to see if it was a problem and sure enough, there were many others who had the same problem. I also read where it was a problem with another EA game. They said that EA does not keep up their systems.

The cause and fix for campain mode
January 4, 2012
I also hade the same issue. Its because of that 2gb game update down load. I went into my xbox hard drive and deleted the 2gb update and that seemed to fix the problem.

Poor quality, big let down
BylmnopfromVA
I have every Call of Duty released, this game is a joke in every way when stacked next to to COD. I have seen audio issues where my weapons go silent, the field of sight on my targets is poor looking down the sights and the game save process in the game is defective, when trying to go back to my last saved point in the mission the software hangs up and just gives a black screen. I had to restart the whole game and loose my progress, I am glad I got it on on sale as this is in no way a 60 dollar game, then again I dont think none of them are actually.

The problem
January 4, 2012
I hade same problem with screen just going black while trying to load up my last save point or the game would stop after 1 minute and say last connection even when in single player campain mode. It's that 2gb update download that is messing things up. After I had issue I deleted that 2gb update and tried again and it worked fine.
