Ignore this if I am wrong. It seems you have been concentrating on zoom lenses, Right? If that is what you have been doing it might be time for you to come over to the dark side and join us "Old prime freaks". May I suggest one of 3 to start out with? M28mm f3.5, M50mm f1.7, and a M135mm f3.5. They are all fairly inexpensive and a good place to get hooked on primes.

You are correct...I am also finding this out the hard way.(in the long run expensive way)
The long zooms are so much of a compromise in quality, that even with my novice eye I can notice the difference...The short zooms like the 28-70 F2/8 tamron or my 50-135 F2/8 are excellent...I can see why dedicated pros's get nothing but primes...
I will look into your suggestions.
Thanks, javier
