Test Results

As mentioned already  there was a marked difference between results from this lens with the Fuji S2 Pro and the Nikon D70 - so I’ve published both. All results below were processed from raw files with Photoshop CS2 and given exactly the same amount of sharpening.

Conclusions

Used with Nikon bodies this returned superb results but if you’re a Fuji S2 or S3 owner - look elsewhere.  Beautifully made - it’s a great performer with Nikon DSLRs.
