You did good. Very, very good. The three items usually run:
80/4 - $250 (if it is the manual version)
135/4.5 - $300
65-116 - roughly $130
Total = $680!
I'm not very experienced with them, but I think the 80/4 ONLY focuses very
close. As for the 65-116, you can use it with anything, but the results
will vary.
Have fun!
