Well, Paul, that could explain the confusion. (I've always found it useful to blame any instance of confusion on another instance of confusion - <g>.) > I assumed there were three: > f/3.5, 67mm filter > f/2.8 to 3.5, 62mm filter > f/2.8 to 4, 58mm filter And I assumed there were three, also, but I was counting a different three. My list: f/3.5, 67mm f/3.5, 62mm f/2.8-4 I didn't think about the f/2.8-3.5 version. > It appears, from this thread, that there was a fourth: f/3.5, 62mm > filter, appearing just after the original f/3.5. So when I asked > Gary "Who made the second?" or "Who made the third?" we were not > counting the same. Well, that would explain it. So, would the following then be correct? f/3.5, 67mm, Kiron f/3.5, 62mm, Tokina f/2.8-3.5, Komine f/2.8-4, Komine Also, I just came across a copy of the Modern Photo review of the f/2.8-4 version, to go along with the Modern Photo reviews of the two f/3.5 versions. (I don't have anything on the f/2.8-3.5.) If I have nothing better to do in a while (which, of course, I do - there's all sorts of ~useful~ things I could be doing with my time - <g>), I will put all the numbers into HTML tables, for easy comparison (for what it's worth - <g>), and then put them on my web site.
