Yup, but that is cheating.  :-)

Yup, those were at 1:20 reproduction.  It is kind of hard to find huge flat
subjects at infinity, unless I picked a side of a hotel/casino.  I'm running
fresh tests at 1:45 and hope to have lots of Zuikos tested over time.  The
initial batch compares the 35-105mm f/3.5~4.5, the 35-70 f/3.6, the 50mm f/2,
the 35mm f/2 MC, the 35mm f/2.8 SC, the 85mm f/2 SC and the 100mm f/2.8 SC -
at all click stopped apertures.  I want to see if the 35-105 is worth keeping,
esp. in light of having a IS-10DLX in the arsenal.  Now to see if Fuji will
accept 24 exp. mailers plus $$ for my 36 exp. Fujichrome 64T rolls.
