Do you need the "best" lens

Re: Do you need the "best" lens. No but it helps...

Many, if not most of my Fujifilm photos don't nail focus or have motion blur, or I just haven't sharpened them well in Lightroom. One was picked up by Flickr's explore today. But since switching to sharper lenses on a faster focusing camera I am much happier with my photos.

Which is more important than whether Flickr likes it imho. It feels great to have a higher keeper rate due to the AF, extra sharpness and shallower DOF, from better f1.4 lenses (better usually includes f1.4). The f1.4 helps reduce the motion blur from my hands.
