OP is surprised that there are so many varied responses.I need to be specific.
I like speed and I like to push the bokeh.I can't even see purple well cause I am colour blind
I also like the feel of nice stuff(who doesn't)- as long as it works.I had a Noctilux
once(sold) and while it was supposed to be the super lens of all super lenses, focusing was nearly impossible with it,thing weighed a ton, and really did not make too many great shots unless the cosmos aligned, everybody stayed relatively still, and I nailed the moment or got lucky.
I thought everyone would tell me to get the FA31mm & FA77mm !??- are they not the cat's ass?
I like the way the sun looks with the DA15mm- no?
I will shoot anything- but can K5iis handle sports?- thought AF was not quick enough?… and then what do you stick on it, the 200mm f2.8?
OK- I need to make this more challenging-
Top two lenses and I have $1200 to spend. Period.Wife will be watching!
