wow, I did'nt realize there was a difference. I have an older one, 110xxx, as
my main lens for hiking/backpacking/traveling. i will be interested in seeing
the test results.
as for focusing, it can be difficult in low light, but I always thought it was
easier at 105 since things were zoomed in and easier to see. This lens also
seems to not work as well with some focusing screens.
