What I meant was that the 150 was memorable. . .it was impressively
sharp and contrasty lens (a later version was not so). . .
The 100 was not memorable. But, as I mentioned, it has been my
30+ year experience with perhaps many systems and lenses
that quality does vary between different examples of the
same (model/make) of lens.
