I would like to see some actual expert analysis regarding alleged difference in lenses. Having taken an emount lens apart it seems clear that Sony made it damn near impossible to make one different from another. I don't think you could if you wanted to, other than actual sabotage.

The amateur "tests" almost all have such huge variables from one example to another that I do not think they are valid most of the time.

Just judging from the tone of the numerous "I bought X number of this or that posts and returned the faulty ones..." bragging posts over the years there is certainly a detectable pattern of personality types.

People brag to showcase their self-importance and to project an image of power.

I shot ALL three side lens x side same lighting same focal point using Peaking and same day...yes clouds move slightly but I needed clouds to depict the magenta cast...

This is the same way that folks learn the sharpest f/stop on any camera/lens combo...

I.E. the Panasonic FZ200 is sharpest at f/4...the tests done by Image Resource used f/5.6?...

so is that a valid test?...no not from field experience with the FZ200...f/4 is the sharpest...

you expert judgeMENTAL folks make my ar$e want to crochet barbed wire...

So the glass could not possibly be deformed even the slightest to cause it to be off center?...there's some variables somewhere in Sony's process of making the 10-18 for sure...

Don't mind you folks pi$$ing on my leg, just don't try and tell me it is rain...I've taken several apart as well Oly and Panny and there are very small thinnnn plastic washers behind the front element for alignment, IF any of these are not reinstalled it can cause misalignment...

Mr Ichiro Kitao, I support the call to upgrade the FZ50.
I will not only buy one but two no questions asked...
