Ahh, it's crap anyway, has to be stopped down to f5.6 before it's sharp, I've 
got an old 85/2 I could swap you, it's sharp from f2 :-P

Seriously I shot over 300 shots with mine this weekend all at f1.4 and it does 
perform, if only the finder on the *ist D were as fantastic as the LX. I do 
miss it.
