Hi Lluis,

Thanks for looking.  I had to evaluate the close-up DOF, as you will see in 
another post, in order to understand how to use the lens. Used within its 
limitations, it is fine. Misused, I get a lot of less-than-sharp images 
because, even at f/22, my subject matter exceeded the narrow DOF. I was not 
really happy with this image.
