And I gather you also have an M system! My R lenses are: a.) 24/f2.8. b.) 35/f2. c.) 90/f2.8. d.) 100 apo. e.) 180/f2.8 apo. I use my R7 with the 24-35-90 lenses; the R8 with the two apos...... You'll notice with the exception of the 35 f2, all are f2.8. I finally decided that I wanted a faster ( f1.4/f2 ) portrait lens & that AF would allow me to capture "candids" better at these "wide open" apertures That's why I bought the F100/85 f1.8..........to experiment! And one thing led to another...... optimal bokeh w/either the Nikkor 85 f1.4 OR an Contax N1 with the 84 f1.4. Whew ;-)! Tom D.
