Harry,
I don't have a site to load my image onto, but I thought since you are doing
comparisons you'd like to see what my scan looks like. It is a crop from a
2510 dpi scan. In spite of the color fringing there is considerably less
"coma" than on your other samples - and my unit is not in perfect working
order!

PS, since you are sharing your results with the list you are welcome to add
mine to the collection. Let me know if you'd prefer a different view or
anything.
