It looks like it's the lens. (The focus appeared perfect on the 90). Of course thanks to you guys this discovery has me crying like a baby now that the camera fix has been described as a 5 minute job and the lens fix as "complicated."

I do need to check one last think. I shot with "lens coding detected" and the 50 is not yet coded. Maybe that makes a difference. Then again, maybe the depth of field difference between shooting wide open at 1.4 on the 50 and 2.0 on the 90 allows me to see the problem on the 50 but not the 90.

Focusing sure looks great at 4.0 with the tri-elmar!
