Chris Williams had a truly outstanding 21/4 CV shot of the inside of a Civil
War vintage fort just outside of New Orleans. Unfortunately, I cannot find
the darned thing on his website.

Hey Chris, where is that shot?

Sonny,

Very cool pics, but I don't think they show the very good resolving power of
this lens. 

I don't have scans doctored and online, but I used this lens extensively 2
summers ago on a trip through Montreal, Quebec city and finally the Gaspe
penninsula.  At that time, I used alot of Fuji Reala and Neopan 400, and the
detail in the pics with this lens was really outstanding.
