There was a dealer in Wigan who had a SH 30mm in for years and the price was lower than a SH 28mm. No one wanted it (including me) because it was so close to a 28mm and the 28mm was wider. That was about 5 years ago. It would be gone now because the shop (Wildings I think?) moved and don't do much SH now.

I must admit I had never taken much notice of it but the reviews I have read recently rate it very highly. Shame you didn't snap it up, would go for a tidy sum on fleabay now.There was a dealer in Wigan who had a SH 30mm in for years and the price was lower than a SH 28mm.

If you take an image that you know to be perfectly sharp you will find the magnification limit jus' by simply lookin'. Beyond x16 and at x19 the image is fuzzy and unsharp.
It was x16 on my other cameras also. Its not rocket science.
But that wasn't the question asked which was "how far do you have to zoom in to get 1 pixel on the preview screen = 1 pixel in the image". The maths suggests that somewhere in the region of 6 to 7 times depending on sensor resolution.From experience and common practice.

"Normal" glass is quite susceptible to bubbles as it is a liquid when manufactured although one would expect the QC to reject lens elements ground from glass which had bubbles.
Funny thing about glass is that it will still flow with time. Very old church glass is thicker at the bottom of the window than the top!

Great shots all although to be different I like No 1 especially. Are they Barbican / Museum of London sort of area?
Best wishes, Kris.

My favourite ME Super is black with some nice brassing in places. Has the feel of a well worn old friend. The ES is black (I think they all were) but has almost no brassing at all. Not sure I go for the "titanium" K20D but surely it would be possible to have some tasteful alternative colours to black?

You can kill the fungus with UV light I believe so the Tammy might not be worthless.
How is the Tammy TC Kris?
If it's any good it's mine okay.
Never used it so I don't really know. The elements are dusty from sitting on my top shelf, but I cannot see any fungus. PM me your address and I'll send it on.You can kill the fungus with UV light I believe so the Tammy might not be worthless.

Have you tried a focus test? Matt said he had managed to adjust his.
Cheers, Kris.
