Later one multi coated one in very good condition, (Although I have an
older single coated but have not tried it much) I always use the self
timer on the om4ti and a tripod and run at f8 even for night photography
and just sit there counting the 10s of seconds...
Im probably being hyper critical of it.
I know wide angle lenses are retro focus and therefore not as sharp as non
retro focus.
For example I have a shoot of hong kong at night on a clear night where
the detail in the central portion is fine. However by the edges the size
of the lights in the buildings is significantly larger and more defuse.
True this could be the slide scanner (minolta scan elite 5400 but other
shoots the same evening using the 35-70 F3.6 or tamron 90mm do not have
this affect.

James
