Your predilection for large apertures is clearly visible to me in many of your images which I (personally) dislike for insufficient depth of field and, in particular out of focus foregrounds. But you're right, I'm not likely to convince you to use new tricks. :-)

I did use the Fuji zooms which have Image Stabilization and can be shot at
very high ISOs.  They worked surprisingly well. Usually, and especially in
the days of film, zooms were way too slow and heavy to hand-hold at slow
shutter speeds.  That's where Leica used to shine.  I carried at least 3
Leicas with the fastest prime lens available on each.  I worked that way
for over 30 years so I guess you can't teach this old dog new tricks!

Unless you need several different lenses very quickly.

Ah, but that's why we're told that zoom lenses are better. ;)

I'd buy a brace of Leicas too if I were doing what you are doing, Tina.
