One solution would be 2 of the 400 DO lenses and 2 bodies
I think you may have confused me with that rich AlanF character that has money to burn!
And then I'd need an assistant to carry the extra camera. Just once I hiked with a 1D4 and 300 2.8 and 6D and 70-200 2.8 around my neck and that was enough of that!

If you were rich, you would need 3x of each- one with the 25mm tube, one with the 1.4xIII and one bare. It would be difficult to choose the camera bodies. Maybe a 1DXII, a 5DS(r) and just for the heck of it, a 5DIV. A 7DII as a backup
I'd be tired with all of that around my neck too. That's why I have a backpack or bag

Hi lion rock.
That is quite some effect that the lens baby gives you. Which lens is it please, I just looked and they do so many.
So many very nice shots here, truly inspiring, I have been pointing the camera at flowers to try to get a nice shot but all mine are just something and nothing mostly nothing shots. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Graham.

Valvebounce,
You're praising me too much; I'm truly humbled.
The lens I got was Lensbaby Composer Pro installed with "Sweet 35 (mm)" optics.
There is a range of 4-5 optics you can interchange with the Sweet 35.
The lens is fully manual, gives you aperture and focus control and won't report them to the camera. My issue is I forget to close the aperture after focusing with wide open. You'll also have to adjust for ISO and shutter speed for proper exposure. I'm not that good at remembering all the procedures.
Honestly, it is a good diversion away from perfect shots.
Attached, not a floral one, but the moss may qualify for it. Also shot with the Lensbaby.

Thanks, Lion Rock. In a certain aspect, a good photographer is a person who has taken a lot of photos but also has scrapped many dull ones of them. If we have yet to take as good pictures as someone, it is because we haven't yet taken and scrapped so many pictures as he has.
Cheers, Dien
