Hi Chris,
I'm on heavy duty steroids just to carry the lens at times. ;-) But heck 
I'll still stand fast on my use of it and how well it is side by side with 
my f 1.0 Noctilux. Another lens requiring steroids! ;-) And I wouldn't trade 
nor sell either for at least anothe 15 years when I reach the magical 100th 
year! :-)  That's my cut off date! :-)

Cheers crew for all the comments. Love ya! :-)

cheers,
ted.
