well im hoping the industar turns out to be a nice portrait lens and the jupiter a nice intermediate tele! the factor on aps-c is 1,5 (sony nex), so i will have access to 75/100 on the industar & 200/270 on the jupiter. Some joys to being the regular photo retail industry

Ah!
I understand better....
Your steam engines are toys, not real locomotives!..[:D]
Welcome.
Amitiés. Another Jacques.

jacques,
i wish they were the full size engines! i travelled many kilometres behind steam engines in my youth, our national railway only switched to diesel in my teenage years-fond memories
