Pretty much all of them - even my new M*300/4.
2. Which lens will you only bring out in the nicest
conditions?
(and as a result this lens, though perhaps now
having some age to it,
still looks like new)
I'd be saddened if my nicer stuff got ruined (applies
to camera bodies too, not just lenses), but I'll use
it wherever anyway. Usually have a filter of some sort
on the front element in harsh conditions tho.
Good answers, John. I don't own a lens that I wouldn't use in just
about any environment. What's the point? I'm a photographer, not a
lens fondler.
Lenses and cameras are tools. Does a carpenter have special hammers
that he keeps at home on rainy days?
