Btw, Neither Bridge nor ACS recognises the 60-250 zoom yet.
I recently purchased a Tokina AT-X 400mm f/5.6, which Bridge
identifies as a 35-70mm. It's funny to open an image in ACR and read
35-70mm @ 400mm. Is that what you would call an overreaching zoom?

that's a nice setup, but its more lenses than I would
want to carry along or risk losing. I have lenses in
nearly every fl from 15mm to 1000mm but I wouldn't
want to bring

I generally carry one zoom, the 18-250.
The lenses I prefer to use are the primes I carry with me:
FA 31/1.8
DA 40/2.8 (probably my most fun lens to use)
PFA 50/1.4
FA 77
Tamron 90/2.5 macro (my DFA 50/2.8 comes in closer, but the tammy
makes prettier pictures)
A* 200/2.8
I haven't been using

But you wouldn't have these all on you at all times, right?
Have you considered an FA 20mm f/2.8? Or are you wanting to keep it
all manual focus?
