I was totally into what you're saying (I now have more primes than I should), then I went on vacation. Swapping lenses every ten minutes when it's pissing rain or you're getting pelted with spray from a waterfall is no bueno. I get it, I really do, but a good zoom is really nice for inclement situations.

I'll never go one way or the other...they both have their pros and cons so they'll both stay in my bag.

I got no real love for primes.
Same here, except macro lenses, which I love... which might explain why I have 2 100 macros....
I have an 85 prime as well, which I sort of like, but typically can't be bothered to even bring it with me, lol. I had a 35 and 50mm prime, but fuck em.

I've been in a number of situations where 2.8 is just too slow for me, so I like having primes handy.
turn up the iso, turn on the flash or buy a tripod.
