And aperture is adjusted through the camera, not through the lens. You can shoot F/6 at 200mm and have a shallow depth of field, just like you can shoot F/2.8 at 15mm and have the same affect .
errrrr....yeah, thats sort of what i was getting at in my post. never mind the fact that aperture IS a function of the lens. thanks to electronic mounts, it can be adjusted through the body on most modern cameras...but it was formerly a ring on lenses just like the focus ring.
