:Soooo, at the risk of repeating myself till everyone pukes
:all over their keyboard, what does the future "Mercury Jaws"
:want to know about his new purchase?
Well, all I wanted to know was if the quality, in terms of resolution and
contrast, of this specific lens, the Kiron 105/2.8 1:1 macro, for which I
paid the countervalue of 75 Mercury Pesos (MP) before inflation correction,
can seriously be compared to our own De Facto standard, the 80/4 1:1 Macro
Zuik. Any answers that can help me justify wasting.. ahh spending this
amount of money will be rewarded with an amount of gratitude that virtually
corresponds to the countervalue of 105 MP (1 per mm) *after* inflation
correction.
Btw, the question how to transport mass bulks of Mercury to the States has
already been answered. I'll just send it by El-Al (the Israelite Airline Cy.
that continuously lets it poison transports crash on Amsterdam). The
transport documents will refer to it as 'Dutch flowers and tulip bombs.. uhh
bulbs'.
One last thing - any tips that can help me fight the Zuikoholicism Devil are
most welcome. Today The Evil Monster made me do it again, when I saw a
Tokina AT-X 60-120/2.8. Yes I just couldn't resist.
"Woe to you, Oh Earth and Sea, for the Devil sends the beast with wrath,
because he knows the time is short...
Let him who hath understanding reckon the number of the beast for it is a
human number,
its number is Zuiks Zuiks Zuiks."
