From my first film thru the H1

Thanks, the lens was the HC150 (non N), the new one is supposed to be better, but I am not unhappy with this one.
Nice portrait shot!
The new 150N may indeed be better, but for portrait work it probably doesn't make much difference since who cares about the corners? In fact, I often vignette and soften the edges even more for portrait work anyway.
The new 50-II is another matter ... that lens is visibly better across the board ... but you sure pay a premium for that privilege.
The other question is whether these improvements aren't aimed more at users of the H4D/60 or 50MS/200 ... and beyond, where the difference may show up more over the 31/39. It may be a big fat waste of money if not shooting with a super hi-res back locked down on a tripod with a cable release.
