It's a superlative lens! Upon receiving it, I took it to a local camera
store to get a handled case for it. All four employees recognized it and
their eyes' pupils dilated immediatly. One blurted out, "You must have
had to take a second mortgage out on your house to get that!". The best
published examples of this lens' capabilities are in Brian Bowers'
books.
