Tell me how the 28/1.8 is!! I've been eyeing that one myself, ever since I played with the Contax Zeiss 28/2.8. I had no idea how much that focal length would feel like "coming home", but it's a near perfect match to a 50 on my old Oly OM-10. My only problem with the 28/1.8 is the pricetag, especially with this year's price increases.

BTW, I think you'll love the 135L if you ever get your hands on one. Once I got mine, it virtually replaced the 85/1.8 in my bag. The 85 USM rocks, but the color/contrast of the 135L just whomp it into the ground, and the AF of the 135L is just as speedy.

And yeah, I'm nearly an all-prime shooter. The only zoom I use regularly is my 24-105L.
