I think this is probably about on target, and if so, it ticks me off.
I would agree with this, but I checked the online PDF and it shows the new 24/2.8 IS and 28/2.8 IS both being group B, which means they don\'t work with the f/2.8 column of diagonal center points. They use only one diagonal point - the center. So obviously these two lenses can work with diagonal
The thing is, if this is a ploy, it won\'t work on us because of the hacks available. They might be able to get the people who don\'t know ML exists but that\'s it.
I think what is evident is that if there was some kind of semi-systematic way or reasoning behind placing the lenses into groups, it was done so haphazardly or chaotic that a lot of lenses just kinda fell through the cracks.
I just imagine a scene from the TV show \"the office\" or such where the boss walks in and says \"hey wait... I own that lens... make it a group A. And this one... Dwight owns, so let\'s make it a group D! Yeah, that will show \'im.\"
