I'll put money on the lowest F No being around 1 stop darker than the F8 picture.  The cause is the mechanical arm in the lens which as a 'acceptable range of variance' according to Nikon !!!  Please let me know how you get on trying this and feel free to reply in a PM to me if you want.  Either way I'd be really interested in the results !Brian</blockquote>
