Bob, Peter, & Jaap,
You guys just floored me with the lenses you have. How do you decide what to put in the bag?
Hi Ray- I have 2 M8's, an M7 and an M5. The rigid 50 cron lives on the M7, and the 50/lux asph on the M5. I like the 50mm FL the best on RF bodies, and the chrome rigid goes on the chrome M7, the black 50 lux on the black M5.
The 2 M8s have either the zeiss 18 and 28 cron, or the 28 cron and the 35 lux on camera, with a 70 and 90 ready to go. I always go with 2 bodies, but sometimes 2 M8, sometimes M8 + film. Once I get the used 90 APO-asph, I'll probably decide between it and the 70 cron, but don't hold me to it. The noctilux comes out, both film and digital, when I want/need F1. The 75 lux is my preferred portrait lens on both film and digital. The CV 15 is for when I want the smallest, lightest rig, and when IR is not an issue, as it's my only unfiltered lens. The 24/2.8 is my preferred landscape lens. The 90 elmarit is when I want light, super fast focusing (odd term for MF but man that lens snaps into focus), walk around all day, tourist type lens. The 135, well, I don't really use much it but it rocks. The 460, well, it's cool, but unused. So, in the end, they mostly all get put to work, er, play, more than not! best...Peter
