Jim. nobody is trying to convince you. Its your money, your decisions,
your list of priorities. What may bother people here is any
"theoretical" claims not backed up by an actual experience with given
subject. Handholding/tripod issue has little to do with all that, but
once again, nobody is purseading you with forking out lots of cash for
24/28-70L lens, your satisfaction if only what matters for you, so if
you happy with yuor current stuff - keep on, better spend money on film
or photo advantures.
