Holiday Images

I need to keep seeing images like that to remind myself that in FF terms, F2, or even F2.8 is more than enough. I've been pondering whether I've been a bit of a lemming in that regard, wasting time (and money) considering F1.2 over F1.4, etc.
And a big part of how/why I ended up with another RX1 is because I'd decided that with full frame shooting candid portraits, a 24-120 f4 was enough and more useful than the far more exotic 58 f1.4 and 105 f2, which I then sold. I kept the dirt-cheap 85 f1.8 D around for when I really want AF and f4 isn't enough, but that's really a rare situation. And then, when I've gotta have 58 f1.4, there's still the 1960 version of that lens, which I love, either because of or despite the cat-eye bokeh balls in the background. A few nights later...
