At that price you might as well have them. Why not buy a 67 body instead of the 645? The quality of 6x7 images is just breathtaking, whereas the 645 format is only slightly better than 35mm.

Nice set of photos with a great sense of humour. You could put them as a set on EPZ!

It's hard to say, because modern AF lenses are very loose compared with manual focus ones.

The only way to be sure is to compare it with another sample, so maybe someone within range of you could meet up for coffee and have a look at two lenses side by side?

Steve, you are going back a bit with that one!

But, moving ships aside, it's a fair point that testing outsdie of a laboratory needs to be taken with a pinch of salt.

I would suggest if your lens gives you images that look good, then it is good.

These lenses are indeed huge and would dwarf a DSLR. The adapter is very expensive, so it might be better to leave these for some 67 user who really needs them.

You're not serious about the rankings?

You know, I don't think I can offhand. I didn't make a note when the process was worked out and the messages have gone.....

I can tell you that the ranks are placed at reasonable levels, so you don't need to make thousands of posts tom achieve the highest accolades!

If a 16-45mm doesn't impress, then it should IMHO go straight back.
