Dear JCO,
Like I said twice before, I didn't notice much difference in focusing the 35mm @ F8 compared to the 105. As said before, YMMV. Why argue about personal experiences and opinion. It seems that anyone who has an opinion or an experience different than your is a liar or full of BS. Give it a rest already! http://home.earthlink.net/~scbelinkoff/stfu.html Shel > [Original Message] > From: J. C.
