I agree with you, but its good at the same time to know this is a design flaw and not a copy flaw.

I'de think it'de be better to know it was a bad copy, so you could try to replace it and get the issue fixed. Hehe, just messing with you though, hehe. Well if its a design flaw, ill know never to buy a lens without a red ring again. Ill also not make a plonker of myself with my supplier sending it back as faulty when in fact its just the lens.

Weird, everything looks in focus, yet you say it was shot at 1.4 Perhaps it was becasue the DOF was not too large difference wise between the lady and piano?

I bet it would be a lot sharper. Yes, and maybe with a bit of +EC to make it clearer? Dave.

A thread thats growing by the day about a lens that is 13 years old and must have been used by 1000's of people over the years If those 1000s of people could answer a poll asking whether it's sharp and has CA at 1.4 then this would settle the debate!
