The 85MV max aperture is f4.5, which makes it surprising it can perform about equally to the 95PN at its optimum of f3.3. Can you estimate the focal length and aperture of this new lens?
For quick masking tape jobs I always use the blue painters tape, and you have to make sure its the real 3M blue tape, I bought light blue tape non-3m and it was terrible.

The problem is finding another one, I can send you the sellers name if you are interested Ray.

Sure, maybe he will remember something about the lens. At least he'll know he has another buyer if he finds more.
