Interesting data, but I wonder if it reflects what a person would experience with their own lenses. Rental equipment most likely does not get treated as carefully as owner operated equipment.

And between the small sample sizes and statements like this...

The Canon 300 f4 IS has dropped back down on this list compared to our report from 6 months ago. Our initial thoughts, that we had received several from a batch with electronic issues during the last reporting period, were probably correct.
it would be hard to draw any conclusions about the overall population of the lenses. I still love numbers, though.
