It is a fabulous lens, virtually distortion free, on of the very best in the lineup. For the second lens, given the kind of pictures you take, I would suggest either the 75 you are thinking of--it certainly is a great lens--or even better a Noctilux. The 75 is not that different from your 90, the biggest difference being the extra stop, so why not go whole hog and get TWO extra stops with the Nocti? Nathan "B. D.
