A week ago I was making a quick lens change at home before going on location. As I was putting my nifty fifty (Canon 50MM f1.4) lens onto the camera body I accidentally dropped it. Luckily this is neither a heavy nor an expensive lens so I expected it to hit the floor and shatter. Unfortunately, as my luck would have it, it landed on my bare foot and then gracefully rolled across the tiled floor of the living room. I snatched it up and shook it, and amazingly it was not broken. I felt a quick pang of relief and then noticed that my foot was throbbing. The good news, the lens was not broken, the bad news, my third toe was! One week on and I'm still limping around like an old man :( Such is life I guess.
