Dear Mike,
thank you for the insight which as usual is so articulate. I think the solution is to keep weaning myself from photo reference. I am quite free from the colour rendition, so that is why I am only concerned with the white balance in photographing paintings. The next step will be to recognize and correct distortion, or better to be able to use it when and where I think it might be needed.
Lacey I am very tempted to get this lens, if only to take away a few grams from the traditional heaviness of Nikon cameras. At the moment I have no commissions and am mainly working on still lifes (hence less posting on the forum), but I will have to make a decision on my equipment sooner or later.
Thank you very much to both of you for replying to my doubts
Ilaria
