The 180 Apo crept up on me; when I first got it I wasn't sure I would
use a 180 much but I found it returning great pictures. I must say I
already think the 100 Apo will become a favourite.

While talking about R lenses what is the current thinking on the 90
Apo? Not a macro lens but lighter than the 100 Apo.
