I'm green with envy swoop!

Great kit!

(I guess, when I'm 50 and have worked with law for 25 years, I'll be close to half of that :P )

Very nice!

Why was Olympus able to make such fine lenses that were so much smaller than their contemporaries ?

P.S. how much?

I had a 55/1.2 and sold it... Sometimes I regret, but I couldn't justify Rokkor, Pentax K, and it...

Bobby, I thought you didn't like MF lenses...

. A nice classic camera/lens

You are right .... I didn't! MF lenses were totally frustrating to use on the 5D. But the advent of the AF-confirm or focus confirmation chip and live view made MF lenses useable, to me. Also, I have ordered the Maxwell Hi-Lux screen and I just got my Nikon DK-17M magnifying eyepiece. These tools help to make MF a lot easier. Without these aids (especially live view) I could not deal with MF lenses. Even with these aids, I would never use a MF lens if I need to shoot quickly.

Funny thing is I just got the OM-2S to go with my 55/1.2 (and 18/3.5, 50/1.4, 28/3.5)!

It seems you are missing a screw in the front lens plate of the 5D

surprisingly light! Lighter than my Leica 50/1.4 SLR lens. It's a pretty good combo Ulrik, but the 0.72 finder on the M6 is a little wide, I can still frame and focus but I feel distanced from the subject. I've ordered a magnifier to make it 0.85 equivalent

André, Just get one, you won't regret it
