Some people presumably did, given the existence of the FA35, FA43 and FA*200.
Although nobody thinks of it as such these days, the 43mm Limited is actually a kit lens. It first appeared in kit form with the MZ-3 film body.

but it really is nitpicking. if a shot at f/16 isn't sharp enough for you because of diffraction, you really need to think about how sharp you need your pictures to be
Lens "defects" are exploitable.

The irony is that before the local major road had speed bumps and pinch points: 1 accident.
After: 18 accidents.

Hang on! How does a teleconvertor turn a manual focus lens into an autofocus lens
Comment by johnriley posted on Any advice on choosing a AF teleconverter? at 14/09/2010 - 09:55
I've often been surprised when testing a lens (at 25x) that
the f/5.6 result is better than the f/8 result and it
shouldn't be? I usually take 4 shots at each aperture
and pick the best... refocusing for each shot. At f/1.4
to f/4 only 1 shot might be good. At f/8 all 4 are
usually identical due to DOF, but it could be identicaly
off on each shot.
Next time I'll try shifting the camera back and forth
+-15mm at f/8 (on a Novoflex rack)to see if it's
any better.
