I wonder if we might be able to agree (yeah, I know, I know) on some methodology for educating the group about all-'o-these-here 50's... At first blush one might think that we could take up a collection to send a small honorarium to one of the members who actually owns a whole slew of these things (you know who you are) and have them shoot the same subject with different lenses... 'pod... blah blah blah... but perhaps that's not really the thing that would get the differences across in the most graphic way. Maybe those with strong opinions about these things could post a few shots (in which they feel that a particular lens really shows its character) to a dedicated "50MM Roundup" gallery (along with film/developer info). 'Cause I know that I, for one, would really like to be able to see some of these "character issues" for my ownself...
