I own just the M200/4 and the A70-210/4 and generally I concur with your findings. Nevertheless my sample of M200/4 shows some chromatic aberration on film (haven't tried it on digital yet). Yuriy: Ralf posted a superb picture made using the M200/4 not so long time ago... Cheers, Peter -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
