I'd have to use my TS-E 17/4L to take a photo of all of my hot sauces, from the same distance. That photo shows some of the sauces and spices from the front row of my "hot" cupboard. I'm just sayin'.

The problem with building my collection is that I keep eating it.

Are we comparing sizes (of hot sauce collections)?

I built a glass house (hot house) to grow chillies about 15 years ago and have just rebuilt it in my present location (although still a work in progress). Chillies grow hotter in hotter ambient temperatures, hence growing them in a 'hot house' for maximum kick. Had about 30 varieties of chillies growing at one time, including hydroponically, now down to a few favourites that I grow every season. Mmmm, chillies...

We don't grow many chillies here in Nova Scotia. OTOH, we frequently do get 'chilly'. That's why we import so many chillies.

Hmmm, massive lens collection and now reports of a hot sauce buying problem. I think you might have a hoarding issue?

My only hot sauce buying problem is shelf space.

Last week, I snagged a sweet Mamiya 645 Jalapenjo 45/2.8H*, but I had to sell it, due to a lack of space in my "hot sauce cupboard". What`s up with that?

* H = hot!

Well, maybe. Do you want to buy some lenses? Could be win-win.

Nice photo with the Cosina 55/1.2, Niklas. Very smooth transitions in challenging light. I've often thought about getting one of these, or the Tomioka/Porst. Now I'm wondering how it would compare with my Rokkor-X 58/1.2.

Sigh...
