[QUOTE="Eye-level, post: 63820, member: 6548"] I beg to differ! Compare an old 85/1.8 which is 52mm to an old 85/1.4 which is 72mm in the front...totally relevant Don. The faster lens requires the bigger front element to work. Physics not math has everything to do with it too. When you start getting into the shorter wider focal lengths it doesn't matter as much that is why the 35/1.8 is smaller than his zooms in the OP. [/QUOTE]
