Thanks, Brian, for going the extra yard to get an expert point of view from within the optical industry (rather than yet another "I reckon that ... blah, blah, blah").
But somehow I fear that, within two months, someone who missed this thread, or the previous thread on the subject, or the one before that, will enlighten us that all the "rumours" of digital wide-angle problems are just fear mongering, and that it really makes no difference whether it's film or electronics at the focal plane because the light doesn't know what it's striking! Gawd spare me! Read my lips: film is not the same as an imaging chip, it has some similarities but it also has significant differences.
