If you ever get disappointed at the image quality of that 180/2.0 you can
throw it out in my direction... I recall seeing some test reviews that said
it was one of the best lenses ever tested by the magazine (which I can't
remember now...) and in similar fashion they liked the 250/2.0 a lot too, in
case you're discarding multiple big whites... <g>
