Also some fine portraits of your friend. Like all of the dog families on the list, I share your sadness there. Regarding the cron, I hope that some folks might post pics from other designs too. I'm not convinced that the falloff is unique to or worse in my favourite lens. The effect seems definitely influenced by the exposure chosen, contrast range, angle of the light in the sky and even the angle of holding your tongue when the picture is made. I went back and found a scene with good exposure, the same Velvia100F as my others and some bright bottom corners too. World's most boring photo I know. <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/gh/a/Tas/vignette+test.jpg.html> <http://tinyurl.com/yurv7g> I've rescanned, not cropped and made no tonal changes to the scan, just down sized to a jpg suitable for posting. I see nary a sign of any effect apparent in this one. Yet other frames where the image has been underexposed for very saturated slides it is quite prominent.

Most visible on the images ending 012.jpg and 013.jpg - but also visible on some of the others. All the shots ending in .jpg are with the 28 cron. Some are cropped however.
