Was the test unspectacular for lenses in general or only for
14mm-class lenses.  There are design compromises which have
to made for such an extreme focal length, compromises which
may not be really objectionable in practical usage.  I
should be able to track this lens test down in one of the
area libraries, but if you have ready info I'm all ears
(eyes?).
