I just add a recent observation, some dust entered in the lens, pobably caused by the zoom action, and fixed on the internal front glass, impossible to remove it by myself.
I never work in dusty conditions, so the sealing seems to be not very good...

if any others users had observed that or not ??

Very well done and I find your quote applies to a lot of lens.

"I don’t agree with comments that give a 10, for a perfect lens. A 9 seems to be maximum for it. Perhaps better, but only after post-processing by a good software."
