[QUOTE="Eyelight, post: 396211, member: 24753"] Faster lenses often have larger objectives in order to pass light thru the larger maximum aperture. As the aperture is stopped down, less of the objective lens is used. So, f/8 passes the same amount of light thru a 1.8 lens as it does thru a 5.6 lens. [/QUOTE]
