For most of my photography I see the aperture as the most important control. It influences the depth of focus. I feel the need to control that more than anything, either to focus attention on the part of the image I want to highlight or to detract from distracting background or foreground where re-framing isn't possible. This is why I prefer fast lenses, slow lenses lack the power to produce strong, pleasant bokeh, I see the control of bokeh as just about the most important function of a lens and key to pleasing images.
