Well, mines not really for sale (as you know).
BUT, wow, congrats on your new baby! Why'd you go D and not Ds? For
the price difference, and my needs, I'd go Ds every time (but then,
I'm a pretty odd fellow).
And, a - what did you call it - Vemar 12mm fisheye? Never heard of
that brand before. Do they specialize in fisheyes or something
('cause I don't know about those beasts, except that I now own a cheap
Russian one...)?
Sounds like you've got something to keep you busy over the next couple
of weekends. Another film guy goes to the dark side. There are fewer
and fewer of us diehards left...
