Andy, this is over 45 years, it is only 2 per year
Rafael - that's the funniest thing I've heard. 2 per year. You're justifying yourself to US, on HERE?!!! Look around you. Read the room. lol.
2 per year? relax, I bought 3 lenses this week, and I bought 3 last week. I'm harassing sellers to get an 8.5 cm and I'm trying very hard not to buy a Zeiss 25mm Biogon (and all this gear talk is not helping).
Curtis liked to say, kit building is forever, I know that's my mantra.
I'm surprised you called it a weakness, that's not at all how I see it, and it's not notoriety either, it's jealousy. Jealousy pure and simple.
Ben
Well, it does SOUND rational, but it's still 90 lenses. Saying that, like Mark, Ben, Joseph, myself included we've all bought quite a few more lenses than we currently own I bet !
Jose - love the woodpecker pics. I didn't realise you were using the Olympus , that's very interesting.
Phong - the thread is moving so fast I didn't get to say what a striking desert pic that was, very bold to have a yellow dress amongst all that sand. On Flickr it says it's 50mm but not which one?

OK. all this conversation had me add $80 to my initial offer and that was enough to get this. Hope is good as the seller takes no returns. But he states enough I can hold his feet to the fire in E-Bay if need be.
I should sue you all for encouraging addiction. That way I can enough money for the nocturnal and the 300mm 2.0.!!!!!!!
Some day Rafael will set up a display of all his shiny lenses and we can all go to San Diego to see the exhibition, and the cruisin grand he shows up at every evening
Been off the site for a couple of weeks, coming back now and, of course, the conversation is fueling GAS. I think I should maybe stay off another week to let this get past the system.
Congrats on all the new acquisitions, and kudos on the continued quality and variety of work shared.

Ray - You can run, but you can’t hide. GAS will get you no matter where you are at
