I have very little interest in any of the smaller, cheaper lenses in the system. I'm glad they're there but I really have no interest in them. By and large, my minimum requirements are that anything I use needs to be weather sealed to some degree. So the 17/1.8 II and 25/1.8 II squeak by on that criteria, but anything else is just kind of dead to me.
I don't like having to use a tripod, but I do like using a tripod. I feel like it puts me into a different headspace and I approach framing and thinking about a composition differently.
I don't know how much they like it, but I've been a member of a couple of photo clubs and participate in a workshop or two every year and it seems like everybody is using a tripod except me, and I get the feeling that I'm judged as not taking my photography as seriously because I don't...but maybe that's just my own insecurities:-|
they need a tripod because their cameras are crap :-D
Sure. Interiors and macro. The other 95% of the time, no.
