One look at the prints and you know you have a special lens. Simon Robert Browne wrote: > > There are times when the lens quality is so obvious that the viewer will notice a difference. The first time this happened to me is when I started to use the R system and I used a 100mm f4 macro and APX 25 to shoot black and white portraits for a client. When I picked up the finished prints from my printer his first comment to me was to ask what lens I was using. He said they were the sharpest prints he had ever seen from 35mm. In lenses the law of diminishing returns sets in pretty quickly, but sometimes the difference is worth it. > - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
