This example is the so called macro review where the performance of the Nikon 105mm is described as 'not very consistent across the zoom range'.

Is it too much to ask for accurate reviews?

This is not a troll just someone who like most people now has to watch his money and I won't be spending any more on this magazine.

I am not clear on the problem. Is it the grammar? You disagree with their results? Sorry, as written, it is not really clear what the issue is.

You do state that this can be found in "almost any magazine" so that confirms DCW matches industry standards. That conflicts with your complaint about the magazine if they are all the same.

I think it may be that the 105mm is a prime lens so doesn't have a zoom range.

I did not catch that Good point.

The OP has edited their posting to take out the part I was referencing.

I wonder did the reviewer mean the aperture range.

That makes more sense.
