 But this brings me to my question, how much
better is a MC lens then a SC lens?

Well that's a loaded question. I'm not an expert on the matter but here's the way I look at it. Primarily a multi coated lens is better at reducing flare, after that it's up to the individual to decide if its better than anything else. I have a SC 135mm f2.8 that produces great portrait images, especially of females 40 and over. Just has a softer look than any of my multicoated lenses in that range. SC lenses seem to be preferred over MC lenses for infrared photography.
   Ken Norton is a big fan of SC lenses for various reasons.
Learn to control situations where flare may be a problem and the SC's stand up against the
   MC's  pretty well, some would say they exceed them.

 Could someone
pick out a photo taken with a SC lens from others
taken with an MC lens?


   Sure, I can...as long as I'm the one that took them.  8>)

   later,
