75 watt in the Omega and 150 watt in the Federal.  The Federal
is supposed to be temperature limited to 75 watts, but the heat
glass is already broken so sue me.  Besides, I haven't used it
much, but will probably try converting to cold-light.  The bulb
I put in the Omega is a fullsized one, whereas the original was
much smaller.  I really need to get the proper sized bulb, but
find that the lighting is much more even and diffusion like.

To get back on OM track again, I have found that the 35/2.8 and
50/3.5 have produced the sharpest negatives with deep DOF,
whereas the 100/2.8 might be a smidgen sharper, but DOF is less.
 Nearly every lens I own peaks at F8 in sharpness.  Gary's tests
pretty much prove that too.
