Rick,

Haven't seen a Press 2 yet - if you find one locally grab a photo of it; I
feel a few web pages coming on ;-)

The 90mm f2.8 is a new one on me - maybe worth looking into.  My tripod has
a fairly comfortable strap so a faster lens would be a bit of a luxury ;-)

Which IR film do you shoot and do you have a web site with any photos?

I keep myself fairly poor with processing and printing charges - usually do
the IR developing myself and B/W printing.  Time is the real killer,
otherwise would  save up for a colour and B/W rotary processor etc
etc......




All the best,
