Thanks a lot for you comment. Does anywhone know if this only happens
with canon cameras (the only cameras I've ever owned)? Do other
manufacturers (Nikon, Pentax, Minolta, etc...) take a different
approach? By the way, only know did I realise that the 50/1.8 is 2/3
stop "darker" the the 50/1.4 and not 1/2 stop as I thought it was. Well,
I guess you must learn 'till you die and this groups is proving top be a
great "school"!
