Bought the lens new with That's coma, and is a common situation with most, if not all, high speed wide-angle lenses. Stop down a bit and it goes away. Only bright lights at the corner that are so small see to cause this problem with every wide angle lens I've ever owned. Just noticed it with my EOS 24mm lens the other day. It also happened, to a lesser extent, to my 35 Summilux R. ========================== Eric Welch Grants Pass Daily Courier
