Hello, Lucien, your address was rejected as too long, hope you get this
message.
Could you e-mail info on Barnim A. Schultze (BAS) test , whom you refer to
in an answer on the LUG, please?
Does he have a website or do you know his e-mail address?
I agree with you, that published tests on lenses are far from absolute,
because test-procedures are not standardized and magazines hate to bite the
hand that feeds them.
Nevertheless they help in avoiding the "dogs" and one must always read
between the lines too.
I have an old test-report by BAS on R4 and some lenses and its findings
were valid IMHO.
thank you and regards -otto-
