[OM] Re: Going to the dark side of the force... no, not *that* dark side, another one !

I have several 50/1.8's as well as a couple other 2.8 or faster Zuikos 
that have never been tried on the 5D.  f/2.8 is the magic number for 
using the "S" focusing screen designed for manual focus.  Time to try 
walking around with one of these lightweights instead of the behemoth 
zooms which are normally attached.
