So after much deliberation and thought, I have decided not to get the new lens. I figured that, yes I might potentially take great shots during my travels, but I then, I will only get to use it while I travel and those occasions are few and far in between. Other than my upcoming New York trip, its only Morocco and maybe Iceland. That’s about it for this year. I see myself using the lens for only three occasions for the entire year. Spending more than S$1300 on a new lens, doesn’t exactly spark joy.
Besides, if I really do want to use the lens, (if for whatever reason, I get great shots out of it during my New York trip), then I will just have to borrow from my friend once again. I think the money could be better spent elsewhere, like a new watch, or a new wallet, maybe do some extra shopping while I am in New York. Who knows…
