Hi Tina,

And the lens can be explained as simply as that!!!!!!!

It is the opportunities it provides that outweighs all the techie things
that non-users and technical officiandos can come up with!

It has to be used at f.1.0 to appreciate what this lens can do for
imaginative photographers. And to hell with all the techie stuff, if you
are more interested in taking pictures where others fear to tread! :)
