Giles,
This is really simple, buy a bigger Pelican case!

Which brings me to my reasons for considering selling my 35/2 and the 24/2.
I mentioned I keep my gear in a Pelican
case, well apart from it's more obvious features it also serves to limit
incipient tendencies to rampant zuikoholism.  I have vowed that if it has
glass and  I can't fit it in the case, I wont acquire it or else something
else will have to go.

That, not performance is the basis for my reasoning.  My case is full so in
order to fit a 35-80 in, something has to go.  obviously the 35-80 does 35
so the 35/2 is an obvious candidate to go.  Now I have sometimes wanted
something a bit wider than the 24 so that is why I have been thinking of
replacing it with a a 21.  The 28?  Well that is a slightly better fit (4
deg) in terms of angle of view between 35 and 21.  What I really need is an
18mm then the 24 would be a perfect fit  - angle of view wise - between the
35 of the zoom and the 18.

The 35/2 would in itself not make enough room for a 35-80 so I am afraid
the 135mm f2.8 will have to go also - anyone want a nice 135mm f2.8 MC with
all caps and case?

Giles
