Aw, I’m shedding a tear… :-)
Glad you’re enjoying it. That was one of the hardest to part with. I used it
extensively in flat copy work when I was doing fine art reproductions for a
living. Amazingly sharp, corner-to-corner, even wide open!
But the equivalent 56mm field-of-view didn’t excite me at the time, although
with a speed-booster, a 40/1.4 sounds interesting in retrospect...
