Howard,

Yes. The Pizar?has the least vignetting of the bunch of Kern Paillards 
(inclunding the much liked 25/1.4), Som Berthiot, etc. so long?as it's kept 
wide 
open or one step?samller at f2.8. And?after that, it vignettes just like the 
rest.?The only one it can't beat is the 25/1.9 Wollensak. This Wollensak 
doesn't 
vignette at all all the way down to f16.?But then, the 26/1.9 Pizar has 
better 
bokeh. That's why I sold all the others and keeping these two.

Thanks Joe,
The pix are lovely - the old lenses draw very well. It is interesting the 
pizar 
doesn't show any vignetting.
Cheers
Howard
