You've complained in the past that you have seen filter induced image degradation. I believe it was a 300mm lens that was suspect until you removed the filter. My 600 is definitely a better lens without the 112mm filter on the front. Erwitt's pictures are well regarded by some because they figure he is a good photographer.
