from secondhand, Australi Summary: One of the sharpest optics available. Resolution/definition are astounding. Wide open the lens is superbly sharp however there is apparent vignetting and the sharpness falls off towards the edges. When stopped down centre sharpness improves only sightly (it's already anamazing) however vignetting is reduced and edge sharpness improves. It's difficult to describe how sharp this lens really is. You really have to see the images to beleive them. Strengths: stunning sharpness
light Weaknesses: 60mm filters can be hard to find
slight vignetting wide open
closest focusing distance is 2.5 meters which is not close enough for tight head shots Similar Products Used: Leica 180/2.0
Conatax Zeiss 180/2.8
Nikkor Ais 180 2.8ED
Nikkor Ais 80-200 2.8 AF ED
Canon 70-200 2.8L Customer Service: Local Australian Agent is very good however Leica in Germany have dissapointed me on several occasions
