You know you are turning into an L junkie...

You know you are turning into a L junkie, when you sit down at a presentation where one of the speakers is using one of those old school overhead projectors that you haven't seen since your long-gone school days (thank god they don't use chalk boards either). They flip it on and you suddenly understand why one side of the projected image is yellow, and the other blue. And you think "They really need some damn flourite in that thing"

The funny thing is that I have always wondered why even while I was a kid. Now I guess I have my answers and so much more

BTW - Hoya not only makes the glass that goes on the front of my lenses, the SAME company also makes the asphericals that go in front of my eyes. I am very rough on my primary working glasses, wiping them on shirts and everything else for years, and not a single scratch on the multicoating. If Hoya uses the same multicoating on their filters, I am really going to

Mine are too, but they're made by Bausch & Lomb, not Hoya.

No kidding. That's my prescription at the top. (definitely not L grade eyes)

Be careful wearing those, might be some sublimal thing going on. You might see Nikon in a different way

Naah! Not at all. Remember that Lust is blind!!

That's what extreme CA looks like.

You know you're turning into an L junkie when spending $900 on a lens sounds too good to be true.

Yeah, I can see it, I think....+ some kind of spatial twisting.
Was that shot with the EF 85 f/1.2L USM ?
No, wait, the $5k EF50 f/1.0L USM pehaps ?

You know when you are turning into an L junkie when...

1. You ask the optomatrist how fast the lenses in your glasses are.
2. You look for UV filters to wear over your glasses.
3. You notice CA from your glasses.
4. You think of ways to do MTF comparos on contact lens brands.
5. You call your sunglasses "neutral density filters"
6. You use a flashlight and a mirror to estimate the aperture range of your pupils.
7. Spending $300 on a pair of glasses sounds like a steal.

OK so I'm bored at work today.
