A C grade for vignetting [the 24mm f/2.0 at 2.0] is very noticable and on the
verge of unacceptable (D).  It hits you right between the eyes.  Other C
grades wide open: 18mm f/3.5, 28mm f/2.8, 35mm f/2.  If anyone hasn't
evaluated vignetting as a lens defect, try shooting a evenly light wall wide
open with one of these lenses.

Ah, thanks.  Two more posted (and copied to the OM List) at:

I shot the XA lens test today, but won't have results till next week.  I
passed on doing the IS-10.  There is no way I can underexpose 1 to 1.5 stops.
Without underexposing my test map, it's a worthless shoot.
