I have owned probably close to 90 lenses in my life time including close to 30 current auto focus lenses on my Nikon and Sony camera's including a stable of older Minolta auto focus lenses. I have NEVER had any of these or prior lenses FINE TUNED. I have shows that feature 16X24 and 20X30 prints, NO PROBLEMS. Bottom line, some folks are just not happy, even if they could walk on water they would not be happy. Same with camera's, they order one on line, decide they don't like that COPY of the body, they return it and get another, now they are happy with the new body, actually both bodies were exactly the same, but like I said, some folks are not happy, they are not happy with a new lens cause it back or front focuses, so they play and play and fine tune the living daylights out of it. Again, there are photographers, and there are good photographers who take great images with more than 90 lenses with NO PROBLEMS. Good luck and keep on shooting until the end.

Your experiences are different than those of many people including legions of professional photographers and talented advanced amateurs and myself. So unless you are suggesting they are all primadonnas and are just being difficult, you might want to be more accepting of what they are seeing. I have had lenses that work better on one body then another, which is VERY noticeable with fast primes when shooting wide open and cropping. I've also experienced that with multiple copies of the same lens on a single body. Practically every pro I know, and I know a bunch, micro adjusts at least some of their lenses on some of their bodies to optimize them.
