I just got the 16-55, I had the 18-135 and the 18-55 before. First there was is no way to compare these, the 16-55 is prime quality. This is the first zoom that convinced me to keep the primes at home, focus speed feels like an slr. weight is not an issue,considering the magic that comes out of this lens and how fast it is to catch kids, my motto is go big or use the iPhone...took it to the beach yesterday and got splashed with sand and mud, bring it on!

This doesn’t imply an value judgement form my part but I like to entertain the thought of being a moderately “ aesthetic" person. Perhaps not as strict and orthodox as he was, but somehow what William Morris wrote appeals to me.
 
“ Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful "
 
 
If possible , even with my modest means, I try to surround myself with things which please my eye, as much as I can possibly afford.
 
I have two hammers, one I found ( and I use it) and the other one I bought. The one I bought wasn’t very expensive but I chose one which I liked when I bought it.
 
I prefer using that one.
