Re: The Samsung scenario - ponderings and/or recommendations

Pan, Foto Koch is good. Nonetheless, once the lens arrives, make sure it is in good order with a smooth zoom ring and not decentered. I came upon a severely decentered copy with a very uneven moving zoom ring before I bought my current copy this summer, which is fine. A second 16 f/2.4 I tested just for comparison was also decentered and had much less corner sharpness than my first copy which I retained. So I guess that QC for lenses is not always tops with Samsung.

Put the lens through its paces and let us now if you think it's iffy. It shouldn't be, but you never know. Foto Koch should honor reclamations. If not, I'll talk to them! I don't mean to worry you, ok?
