Hi toni-a,
If you'd ask me, it is an indication that you need to buy more of the better class(es) of lenses
.
Actually, I have always found that when I get a lens of which I like the way it renders, I shoot more (and get similar questions).
The difference between 15-85 and other standard zoom lenses is that it actually has 3 aspherical elements, which I think are placed in such a way that they actually improve areas in bands going away from the center, so that the entire field of view is more or less similarly sharp, over the entire area. That is what appears to happen anyway when you look at photographs taken with it in more detail.
If that is something you connect with, apart from the 24-135 FF equivalent reach and relatively compact size, it may well trigger, indeed a revival of interest, and enjoyment
.
Kind regards, Wim
