I know it means absolutely nothing, but I figured it would be a fun little game for anyone with some time to waste...

Go to http://www.fredmiranda​.com/reviews/ (external link) and add up all the scores of your lenses, then divide by the number of lenses. No cheating! Include all of your lenses!!!

Me:

Tokina 11-16 2.8: 9.1
Sigma 24 1.8: 7.7
Sigma 30 1.4: 8.9
Canon 85 1.8: 9.4
Canon 135 2.0: 9.9

Average: 9 on the dot

I get an A-! Haha.

100mm Macro USM - 9.6
50mm F/1.8 II - 8.6
85mm F/1.2L - 9.5
18-200 - ??
100-400 F/4.5-5.6L IS - 9.1

I got an error when I tried to divide "??", although 9.2 is the average of the others.

Sigma 30 1.4 = 8.9

Canon 50mm f1.8 = 8.6
Sigma 28mm f1.8 = 7.8
Sigma 70-200 f2.8 = 9.1
Sigma 24-70 f2.8 = 8.2
Tamron 90mm Macro = 9.5
Canon 300 f4 IS = 9.6
Canon 24-105L IS = 9
Canon 17-40L = 9
Canon 100-400L = 9.1
8.88

Slightly skewed by some old reviews of the early version of the 28/1.8 when they didn't work well on digital bodies. 9.01 if you ignore that lens.

100mm macro = 9.6
200mm 2.8L = 9.8
300mm f/4L = 9.6
50mm 1.4 = 9
100-400L = 9.1
17-40L = 9
24-105L = 9
average = 9.3

They don't have a rating for my fisheye which would certainly bring my average down.

28-135: 7.8
10-20: 8.4
24-60: 8.9
=8.4

Does this mean you all have to have that much better of a picture than those with "lesser" lenses? :lol:

canon 85mm f1.8 = 9.4
canon 24-105mm L f4 = 9.0
canon 70-200mm L IS f2.8 = 9.4
sigma 12-24mm = 8.7
sigma 150mm f2.8 macro = 9.6
sigma 50mm f1.4 = 8.7

Avg 9.13 - it would appear that I have exceeded all expectations and got an A.

My parents will never believe me :D
