Best seen at full aperture with a close focus then look at the backround recede and the vignetting occur. The abberation sweeps into the four corners and the plane of focus is thrown towards infinity at the extremes too. Weird and wonderful... I'd debate the 'good conttrast' but then mine has had a hard life (before me) and has probably lost some coating and a few chips of glass too. But it's got a good weight and feel to it, very ergonomic. Jem > -----Original Message----- > From: Roland Smith [SMTP:roland@dnai.com] > > I have a Summaron with eyes which I have used on my M3.
