Which once again shows that tests to not really tell us much about how well a
lens does making photos.
I used to have to listen to Ziegler tapes, by the way. The things commissioned

Nice shot, by the way.

Continuing saga of my FA* 300 f4.5.
Cameron Hood, who went all the way into downtown Vancouver to check the
lens for me, has been trying to reassure me that it is okay. Tonight I
stopped doing artificial tests and took some real-world photos. I am
happy to report that it looks like Cameron is right:

I know, I know, the feet should be in it, but then I couldn't use
central-point autofocus, and anyway the point was to evaluate the lens.
The poor dog worked hard at this. Our temperatures have spiked into the
mid 90s, almost overnight. She was relieved to go back to guarding her
chicks.
As Ron Ziegler once said, "All previous statements are inoperative."
What, you are too young to remember Ron Ziegler? A pity.
