Are de-kitted lenses more prone to sample variation?

Re: Are de-kitted lenses more prone to sample variation?

Sorry Wasabi Bob, you lost this debate. It looks as nobody in this thread believes in tales you were told at Pansonic. Every lens manufacturer including Sony, Canon, Nikon etc, could tell you the same tales how superbly their production is automated, how great quality their products are and how superb their quality control is.

But the truth is that bad lenses and cameras still leave their factories.
Some time ago I bought Sony HX90 in a Sony Center shop. I tried three cameras and only one had no problems (one to three!) I described what happened during the purchase at: http://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/3923170
Nobody answered, but it was understandable, after all it was a Sony thread, users mostly prize their products there.
