Hi, everyone,
I've read the press release, but still don't know what is actually different about the AF 45/2.8 D compared to the AF 45/2.8.
I'm not looking for subjective differences (I read the thread where this information was given).
I'm aware that both lenses are 9 elements/7 groups, minimum focusing distance is exactly the same, and the weight is within 3 grams (495 vs. 492g); I know MTF's are too much to ask for, but I'm suspicious that the optical formula has been recycled. I'm looking for objective differences -- what exactly earns it the "D" moniker? What makes it worth $2100?
Thanks to anyone with this information.
Best regards,
-Brad
