I've posted a number of new lens tests and finally got the Summicron test 
online - after solving some file corruption problems.  As always, these are 
at:

New tests include:
180mm f/2 Zuiko
180mm f/2 Zuiko with Olympus 1.4X Teleconverter
500mm f/8 Tamron catadioptric

New lens samples tested include:
300mm f/4.5 Zuiko
300mm f/4.5 with Olympus 1.4X Teleconverter

The highlights are:
1. The 180mm f/2 performs best wide open (A center, A- corner).
2. The 180mm f/2 with Olympus 1.4X teleconverter shows significant 
improvement one stop down (D center, B- corner at f/2 vs. A- center, B corner 
at f/2.8)
