Oh, those throwaway lines......
I consider most any, (read:all), 70-200/2.8 lenses to be LARGE, thus anything comparable to it will also be considered large.
My lens preference is heavily biased towards the Limiteds aesthetic. Anything bigger than an FA77 gets a hard critique from
me. Harsh, I know, but that's how I roll. The DFA 50/1.4, as excellent as it may be, will forever be edged out in >my< bag
by the much smaller yet still very excellent M50/1.7. A svelte profile has always been much appreciated in the gear I use.
