JCO, I shot 60 frames yesterday. Quite a few were with the 165. I should get the proofs back in a couple of days and then I'll be able to compare. Also shot some with the 90 so I'll get to compare that one too.
There certainly seems to be some reason to keep both 165's. One has leaf shutter capability and the other has higher speed. The 90's are another story. One has leaf shutter and the other doesn't. Barring differences in optical quality, there doesn't seem to be much reason to keep both. I do love the 90mm perspective. Very close to the 43 limited in 35mm. I end up using the lens quite a bit.
