Photography is one of the subjects where plentiful reading material is available to those entering the field. For example, Kodak has very good books available. Popular Photography has enough beginning photography columns to bore you after you get the rag for a few months. The thing that sparked this comment is a recent submission about sharpness. Without naming names (because I forgot), I will draw your attention to the article that said that maximum sharpness occurs at f/2 and maximum chromatic aberration at minimum aperture. Does anyone with experience really agree with that. Flames welcome. -- Stan King phone: 201-386-7433 Bell Labs, Whippany, NJ Cornet: 8+232-7433 room 2A-111 uucp: clyde!stan
