24mm and 85mm

I've toyed with the idea recently of using only the R8 body with my three current lenses. It's newer, smaller, lighter with a few more megapixels and the spare batteries are also smaller and lighter. 

But, as I'm well aware, the tendency is to keep using the lens on the camera and not take the time to change lenses even when a different lens would be preferable. Today, for instance, I had the 85mm lens on the R6 and started off with the 24mm lens on the R8. I never did get around to using the 35mm lens.

Having only the single body with three lenses is not really sensible. Here are some of the scenes from today at the battlefield.
