Amazing, I had that lens in D100/300 and nothing like that came out, lens
variation on improving on FF?

Mark : mine is the cheapest lens you can get 24-120 first version 3.5 shot
fully open - it is the lens no-one wants to buy from Ebay - available for
less than $100 :-)

Now, I would like to get a copy of the snap SHE took of me - or is it us?
unsure though as she had a 50mm on.

I may have shot with one hand - don't remember, as I was lugging my suitcase
along - Daniel might remember this, it all went too quickly.

Best
Philippe
