Well, I do not have the lenses you mentioned. I have
the 20-35/3.5-4.5, 50/1.4, and 70-200/2.8. And I
already have two bodies. One of the better
investements I have made. Sometimes I use the second
body to avoid changing lenses either for convenience
or when I am exposed to the elements (rain, sand, mist
from waterfalls etc). But other times I use the second
body for different film. Depending on the situation I
load them with film of different speed or different
types of film. Nevertheless, on a few occasions, and
for other people on most occasions, I should be able
to change focal length fast. In that case I use the
same film and put different lenses on different
bodies. But if I work in the range of 70mm it gets
quite hard because even changing from one camera to
the other takes too much time. For myself I have
missed few shots because of that but for others I
think an overlapping zoom range would make lots of
sense. Just my thoughts. As you, I can live very well
with what I have but I sure would prefere a 28-105
over a 28-70 (with parameters except a difference in
price).
