ND grad can useful in principle, if you have a tripod - I can't use them handheld at all.

As to zooms, I just don't have the eye or the discipline to use them. I tend to stand where I am and zoom without considering whether I should move to get a better shot. The primes force me to either move or change lens, which is enough hassle to make me think seriously about moving for a split second.

I would agree with that comment... Being quite lazy naturally, and not having to "get" a picture for professional use, I "need" the constraint of primes and MF to move a bit beyond... :-)

Some go fishing, I go photographing ! Sometimes I get small fishes and sometimes a big one... But the pleasure is still the same !
