I can identify in that shot another characteristic of the focal length which is that there is a noticeable rendering of closer features appearing a little larger when you are close enough to fill the frame as here. I've drifted back to no more than head and shoulders with mine(or cropped where appropriate) and am starting to use my 90 (and longer would be better) more for those closer frames; which brings me to the inherent limitations of the viewfinder.Yet mine is easily my favourite lens, No free lunch I guess. *If you want to take more interesting pictures, stand in front of more interesting stuff* -- Joe McNally Cheers Geoff http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman On 5 April 2013 17:20, Marty Deveney <benedenia at gmail.com> wrote: > My 75 Summilux is misbehaving.
