Sounds like you and cfcontusion might wish to re-read the original poster's question/commentary.
I did.. The original post didn't call into question whether or not QC issues exist in mass production. In fact, implicitly accepting that it is a phenomenon. What it did call into question was why dpreview only used one sample. There is a big difference... unless you are fishing to linky your favorite report.
Usayit's penchant for $3,495 Leica 50mm lenses might make him unaware that Canon's 50/1.4 USM has nowhere near the same optical and mechanical quality leica can lavish on its lenses, and 5 Canon 1.4 lenses in a row delivered horrible performance, all on the same side,
You should know by now that I am a Canon shooter as well.. Yes, I sold off most of my equipment picking and choosing just 3 lenses. One of which is a 50mm f/1.4 which I have not experienced any problems.
So again.. here's another question. What does my ownership of a Leica glass have anything to do with this discussion? btw.. I've never spent that much on a single Leica lens. You might have me confused with a former member... I guarantee you have more $$$ sunk into camera equipment than I. I don't horde the stuff.. I am very selective.
my comments are not those of an anti-Canon person;
They might not be intended in such a manner but your posts always seem to come off that way. It doesn't matter that you own Canon. If that were not the case, this thread:

would have never resulted. Along with the numerous ping pong matches you've had with intempus.
