Bob,
An impressive total of keepers, you shouldn't have any problem picking a few
for the 2012 PDML book.

Doug,
Here's my LR count of keepers so far in 2011.
1 - FA43mm Limited
63 - DA55mm - a new lens this fall for me
65 - DA100mm Macro
137 - various A series (300mm?)
235 - FA31mm Limited
391 - DA60-250mm zoom
The FA31mm is a favorite of mine.
Regards, Bob S.

I was browsing PPG images by lens and noticed that there are only 23
images there that were created with the 31mm f1.8 Limited.
Compare this to 435 images taken with the 43mm f1.9 Limited, 855
images taken with the 77mm f1.8 Limited, and 1824 images taken with
the 70mm f2.4
Not sure what to read into that. Maybe fewer people have the 31mm
because they already have/had other lenses close to that range?
I'm wondering how much the 35mm f2.8 Macro Limited cannibalizes sales
from the 31mm f1.8 Limited?
Or perhaps this is related to the recent reorganization of PPG (a work
still in progress?)

In my case I acquired the FA35/2AL when it first hit the market, and it's
such a capable lens that, even though I coveted the 31, I couldn't
justify
taking that leap.
Looking at my current LR catalog, the 35/2 and 43/1.9 combo represent 56%
of
my photographs, with the 43 holding a slight edge in productivity. I
suspect
that if I were to look a little further into my auxiliary drive, the 35/2
would easily outpace all my other lenses.
