I didn't realize you had a mirror lens until the other day when you mentioned to me about the zoo trip..... I've been thinking of getting a cheap one..... I'm one of those people who actually like the "ring" effect. Thought it might be kind of cool to play around with. My lens arsenal is still in the makings..... though I have a few Canon fd mount lenses those are not worth mentioning and I haven't used them in a long time. I've got: Sigma EX 105mm f/2.8 Macro lens 1:1 magnification and by far my most used lens. Sigma EX DG 20-40mm f/2.8 second most used lens....although more so recently now that I have the D-70. And a Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 very rarely used these days, although I'm quite happy with, and for a long time it was the only lens I had. One learns a lot about composing when you are forced to use a normal lens and nothing else. Would like to get that mirror lens.... unsure of which brand yet, though probably a Sigma.... and a proper telephoto zoom.... something along the lines of a 175-400mm maybe? Over-all what I use works for me, I do a lot of macro work and still life..... so the lenses I'd like to get would just be toys to play with......
I am, therefore I create.......
