Why aren't you embarrassed?

I trust the reviews of extremely fastidious photographers/cinematographers who tell me to avoid the Zeiss lenses, after having tested them against the Canon equivalents (not that they report the Zeiss lenses to be equivalents
in any way.) I'm sure if you drove a car that was reported to have faulty brakes or used hair product that had made a friend's hair fall out, after having paid stupid amounts of money for both, YOU would be the foolhardy person that would be embarrassed.

Well, today I counted up the Zeiss lenses that I 'own'.  Turns out I have ~40 of them, ranging in cost from cheaper than a Canon 50mm f/1.4 to double the cost of a Canon 800mm f/5.6L IS.  Of course, unlike the Zeiss camera lenses which are OEM'd by Cosina, all of mine are the genuine article, probably put together by some guy named Hans at the factory in Jena. 

Sadly, none of them will mount on my 7D - they are all microscope objective lenses...   :P
