That's why I said IF, Jeff...:-)...It was in response to the comment that
the lens isn't good enough to use on a....LEYE KAH.....

I, for one, find it extremely hard to believe that Konica would produce such
a rotten lens, even in a cheap point & shoot...I think that who ever made
the comment about name tag/label obsession hit proverbial nail on its
proverbial head...

Well as I said, I have yet to see it in anything I have used it for.  It
also doesn't correlate with other user reports.  It's always possible in a
single sample test that the lens has been dropped or otherwise
damaged.  Statistical significance is not established by testing one lens.
