it's odd, the majority of the pros I assist use zooms. Only 1 uses all primes . . .
He always has too - and shoots a contax 645 with leaf back - but he is never completely happy with the sharpness of the zooms - the primes just blew them away in tests. Now its time for real world testing (he has a shoot tomorrow) to see if his choice to change was worth it.
Do you know how jealous I am of you right now Brody? And its my birthday too, I should have been the one opening that box! O....congrats on the lens! Terrific shots!

(april 26th) haha, I had to wait for almost two weeks for the paycheck to come in, but this is still my big birthday present to myself, lol. happy birthday to you though. hopefully you'll be able to pick up the 85L soon.
