- Personally, I think it has more to do with the photographer behind the
- camera. The difference between a cheap Kalimar lense and an expensive
- Nikon lense isn't going to be a very significant factor unless you're
- making huge enlargements. In fact, some of my best pictures were
- taken with my cheapest lense: a 500MM f/8 like the one that Ritz
- Camera sells.
