Um, yeah, OK, but this thread is not about crap lenses, it's about good lenses...

So your telling me these under $100 lenses are actually not crap? really?

serious? prove it

Um, the first post in the thread I stated one lens available from KEH for $43 rates 5/5 from a highly respected reviewer. I thought it would be interesting to get it and some others in the same class and try them out. I thought it would be fun, but I'm really not interested in stupid challenges.

Bob, Bob... just promise to call me before hitting that "Buy" button, OK?

I couldn't afford that one, don't worry. No idea how much it cost, but I can tell by shear SIZE it's way out of my $$$ range.

Whoah nelly! Now, I know we are all pretty shocked by what just happened back there, but if we all take ten minutes to calm down everything will return to normal. It's easy to get in a vicious altercation about cheap vs. expensive lenses, but let's keep in mind it's all just polished glass and not worthy of the death threats and name calling we've just witnessed. I have made special facilitations to ensure these vitriolic exchanges don't happen again in the future. I hope we can all put this ugly period behind us and move on towards a brighter future in the Eye-Fidelity Circle. Thank you.
