Aahhh... but I do. I bought the 70-180 APO to (in a lot of my work) replace
carrying an 80, 80, 100, 135, and 180. And I got APO (100/2.8) image
quality in the bargain. But I still use 35 & 50 Summicrons because the
image quality is so much better than the E67 37-70/3.5 . So with this new
lens, I can carry two lenses for a lot of my work.
