I took Bill's Zenitar 16/2.8 fish off his hands, and I've been happy
with it.  I don't use it a lot, but when I do I'm reminded of how
great a lens it is.  As I don't normally use a fish when I'm trying to
make a subject look normal, I don't mind the slightly over-saturated
colours; they add to the effect.
