Kidding, here's my comment from the lensbaby thread: A lensbaby is a 50mm lens, just a specialized kind. Keep in mind that this group is open to all 50mm lenses, whether it's a Canon 50mm macro (very different pictures from a standard 50), a 50mm on an APS camera, where it becomes a short tele, or a Hassy 50mm medium format lens, which is wide angle. That's like saying a Canon 24mm tilt-shift lens doesn't belong in the 28mm or wider group because it does tricky things. Damn you!
