Yes, I always believed my 85~250 sample was a good one. Never tested
under test target, but certainly did under the most difficult lighting
situations one could imagine -- always on Provia / Velvia, though. Did
only a few shots with the 2X-A, and in one of them only, I found a
little of barrel dist. No chroma, never. I'm happy now with the 300/4,5,
I remember you had also encouraged me to fetch one. I took my time, this
sample is beautiful. And I had good luck at every step -- specially at
the Custom's Office !. Walking out with such a packet, I was laughing
inside.
Cheers :-)
