The Summicron 28 seems to be focused somewhere just ahead of the frame in the F2 shot, but dead on in the others. The Summicron 50 also shows some shift. Does your test result with the Cosina match your other experiences with it? It seems awful. Likewise the 50 1.8 Nikon. The 85 F2 is suprisingly good.
