Well I don't claim to know everything (or anything really) about lens design but I'll say this: Years ago they didn't try to make all these lenses as f1.2 . This is a real sore spot for me especially lens for mirrorless. They make these nice light camera bodies and try to shove a 6lb lens down my throat. I understand that ppl doing Astro work might need/want that but I'd like some lenses under 200grams to go with the body. I'm a Nikon user for over 50 years and damn near ready to ditch them as they are a particularly bad offender
