Gord:

24mm 2.8, right on the money. I feel a little stupid right now (to 
put it mildly) but probably the couple of filters I had on (a 
Skylight too) were too deep at the rim.

This will show you kids that even a few slides to test a newly bought 
body cannot be taken THAT much in a hurry.

I am thinking about a brain replacement now. Thanks a lot Gord!!!
