LBA is REAL!

I’ve been quite content with my meager collection my 3 favorites being the FA 43ltd, Da 10-17FE and FA 100mm macro WR. Hadn’t bought a lens in probably 5 years. I made the mistake of looking for suggestions for a good lens for a specific purpose and I now have ended up with the FA 77ltd, DA15ltd and DA21ltd smh.... The internet is so bad.....

This is a nice start for the first week, but now you need to start adding some long lenses. I suggest zooming to 300 as a start, unless of course you're seeing stars.

I have a few nice older zooms that go out to 270. I’m trying to hold off until the new FA’s are out...

If you don't own five 50mm lenses you don't have LBA.

No no no. Holding off isn't part of LBA. You need more therapy sooner. There must be a neat lens for sale in an online auction ending in a time zone near you soon.
