Hey,
Quick note -- handled the new zoom today (at Keeble again).
Appears to be quite nice, slightly smaller than the 24-120.
It is IF, but not internal zoom -- it extends roughly 40%
when out all the way to 105 (drat, did not notice if the
front rotates as you zoom out).
The rounded aperture blades are indeed rounded :) It makes
a very nice nearly-circular aperture as you stop down.
Looking forward to hearing from those of you who put film
behind it -- distortion, bokeh, and sharpness throughout
the range are what I'd love to hear about.
Regards,
Chris
