And wish they made fall off filters to use on any lens. The opposites of anti fall of filters they make for so much money for lots of the ultra true wide non retro focus lenses. For me and I don't know how unusual this option is part of the allure of a Distagon or Biogon or what have you is this quality. Part if its fingerprint. The ink is darker at the edges. I'm wondering if a client whose wanting some images of near architectural quality would mind this. I'd think in many cases they wouldn't and may like myself did it. Especially if it's really an super ultra wide we're talking about which implies you jumping through a few hoops to get its results I say have the image in some way say so. Not a extra wide or real darned wide though. Not an ultra. No hoops required. Mark Rabiner Photography Portland Oregon http://rabinergroup.com/
