As if the framelines were 'accurate' to begin with. I certainly can't 
think "now lets see, at 2 meters, this is the size of a standard slide 
mount, and at infinity it's the outside edges but at 1 meter..." The 
simple reason I sold the 75 and kept the 90 (actually one each of the 
current 90s), is that shooting the 75 I made lots of framing errors. 
Some day I'll get myself an 80/1.4 for my R8 (where I can preview the 
DOF too).
