A long while ago I went on a photography 'course' The trainer asked what aperture I was using with my Nikkor 300mm f2.8, he was a bit taken aback when I told him I hadn't paid a small fortune for it to shoot at f8. Why have a fast lens then stop down except if the DoF requires it. My whole aim in photography is to separate the subject from the background.
Mind you, it also helps me keep the shutter speed up... To help with my doddery hands!!!
