Having the 2.0 version of this lens I have nothing but wonderful things to
say about it. You should consider replacing your 2.8 with a late version
2.0. I agree with Doug as far as this lens is concerned. Not sure I buy his
mirror box flare hypothesis. If the stray sight is hitting the mirror box
is must be coming from somewhere - the lens perhap?
