Oops, as I said Senior Moment, managed to leave out the 1 on the 198!!!
Just read your write-up and it answers just about all my questions as well as giving me an idea of the various settings on the zooms. It will be interesting to compare the results of the same model lenses on the same model cameras. The only one not common is my 50mm f/1.4.
Like you the 70/200 is about the longest reach I can go to indoors... The 100/400 will have to wait unless I can convince the art store in town to let me use some floor space after hours (The lighting would also be good).
If you happen to have and calibrate a 100/400 I would be interested in your results.
Thanks again for the assistance.
