Hmm... the SWD picture is unsharp and/or shaken, I don't think you can
conclude anything from that picture. Except that the lens is a lemon if you
can't get it any better.

I noticed 1/100 for the SWD version and 1/320 & 1/500 for Takumar versions
though (which I like btw). Could that explain the difference?
