That IS interesting!  Considering how Giles was "bragging" <g> about
his 50/1.2 a couple years back, it may be worth a look.  I currently
use the 50/1.8 which I use for lens stacking a la John Shaw and a
loupe as well as a normal lens.  The 50/1.2 can come in handy for
available darkness photography.

|PS, Congrats on your new Pod set up!

Thanks, Bud!  It feels GREAT to finally own a tripod which raises the
camera to eye level.  (I am 6 feet tall.)  I am no longer confined to
stooping for images. ;-D
