Not in the Histogram. I made two identical shots from the tripod and 
compared the EXIF data. The picture with f=1.37 ha a slightly faster speed. 
Repeated the procedure under various conditions, always the same result.

But I believe wide open was 1.4, and the official 1.4 click was at the wrong 
place and in reality stopping at 1.43 or 1.44...
