I think if you go on about it enough your spouse/partner get used to it,
mine did pretty quick! Soom fool :) decided to open a photographic shop
three doors up from my house, their used OM gear placed prominently in
the window (There's a nice 500mm Tamron catadipotric in there at the
moment for #190 but that's another story!). Every night without fail my
girlfriend slows down outside the shop just so I can have a look. I
think I've got her convinced! Now to convince her that shelling out my
life savings on a nuclear bunker is a good idea.......
All the best,
Gareth.

I see your point. So in addition to my 18/3.5 and 24/2.8, I need not
only the 55/1.2 and the 50/1.2 (to find out which is best), but also
the 21/2.0, the 28/2.0 and the 35/2.0. Oh, and of course, why not
the 24/2.0 as well.... :o)
Thank you all for your kind advice! This list is terrific!
Indeed!
Now...., Will anyone help me talk to my wife about this? ;-)
That's what the ZA meetings are for, to lure those close to us into
understanding our problem and coming to see why they need to support
us in our habit. Making them sound like AA, NA, etc. is just a ploy to
'get 'em into the tent'. By the time you get to the end of the
alphabet, things are not always as they seem........... [deep,
fiendish laugh follows]
