    Lightening The Load - which lenses to sell ?

    Hey Ron, I'd keep them all. Unless it's a money issue. That 150mm might be more useful when you add the 5x7 you're thinking of. -Rob

    Lightening The Load - which lenses to sell ?

    Ahhh, pulled back from the brink, thanks guys ...

    I was thinking of raising cash, for what I now think is the worst reason, a DSLR :-O

    Michael, that's a really good idea, I can take the 90mm and 150mm lenses out instead of the 110mm and 210mm. That'll give me a different look to my regular shooting spots.

    Frank: Sorry, looks like I'm keeping the 90mm. If I do sell it in the future, you'll be the first to know ...

    Ralph: I bought the G-Claron new earlier this year, it was one of the last ever made, so you'll have to try harder to get it out of my hands :-)

    William: I've always had a hard time selling stuff and yes, sellers remorse sucks !!

    Rob: Good point about 5x7. BTW when are we getting together to shoot with the 450mm ? Drop me an email when you want to go shoot ...

    Thanks for everyones' responses ...

    Ron - get the DSLR. It makes a great light meter.

    Frank, what is wrong/lacking in the Sinaron 90mm f/6.8 that makes you want to buy the Grandagon 90mm f/4.5?

    Frank is getting pretty old, so the brighter GG image with the f/4.5 is probably attractive. ;-)

    brightness, coverage, and the fact that doing Photoslop perspective corrections feels like cheating...
