I agree with you that the age of a lens has little to do with the ability of the photographer to use it in an appropriate fashion. The photo tells a story- you can see with the poster just readable behind him that there seems to be a campaign going on. I guess elections are the same from one end of the globe to the other! The candidates roll up their sleeves, and hunker down with a microphone trying to convince us that our worries are over if we elect them! Lars would not be out of place in Minnesota, (even his name fits that area!), or in Bugscuffle Mississippi. Politicians! The Modern Everyman! I hope you enjoy the new ASPH lens; I tend to buy used lenses since I am retired, and have a limited budget. I have never been one who needed the very latest thing, but I can't criticize anyone who wants the latest and 'best'. It means that more good used stuff is out there! I am getting re-acquainted with rangefinder cameras after many years, and I am still trying to master the Summitar that I bolted on to my M-3! I have a ways to go in order to work my way up to the newer M lenses! Bask in the light, Dan dwpost@msn.com
