Poll.. What lens(es) have you returned?

May 26, 2004

It seems to me that there is some serious quality control with various lenses being sold out there. So I thought it'd be interesting to start a thread about which lens or lenses you have returned because they were soft, back focused, front focused, something was off or wrong.....

Anyone?

Brian
