Just seen as part of the lens range in a photo of the system. Also mentioned
by Peter Karbe in one interview (shown to the Luminous landscape guys I
think).
Doug was correct there when he amended my 280 recollection to 350 of course.
I had confused the conversion.
If the MTF digrams look like those for the 180 it should be spectacular. Now
for that large LOTTO win. I think that it would have to be FIRST prize.
Cheers
