I'm beginning to feel really old. Let me put it this way. I got out of the business just as digital was dawning, and I mean scanner based AV stuff, the consumer digital camera was still a dream. At that time not one of the majors, Canon, Nikon, Leica etc. even made a pro-grade zoom so the zoom/fixed focal length thing didn't really exist. In 25 years in business I only had a single zoom that I can remember... Actually might still have it along with a dozen or so Canon FD lenses in a box in the basement.

[QUOTE="Killtimer, post: 66135, member: 7350"] I'm beginning to feel really old. ;) Let me put it this way. I got out of the business just as digital was dawning, and I mean scanner based AV stuff, the consumer digital camera was still a dream. At that time not one of the majors, Canon, Nikon, Leica etc. even made a pro-grade zoom so the zoom/fixed focal length thing didn't really exist. In 25 years in business I only had a single zoom that I can remember... Actually might still have it along with a dozen or so Canon FD lenses in a box in the basement. :D [/QUOTE]
