 I am sure that any *skilled* photographer could use a zoom or a prime lens 
equally well, but some (most?) situations definitely suit one type of lens 
better than the other.

 Having said that, I don't really see a lot of point in this debate.  Zooms and 
primes each have their pros and cons, and one of the things we need to learn 
as photographers is which lens will best let us capture the images we want.

 FWIW, I sold my only zoom (35-70 f/2.5-3.5) a couple of weeks ago as I 
never use it.  I may test-drive the new 24-90 when a sample arrives down 
here, if I can think of a reason to own that instead of a 77mm Limited :)

Cheers,
