Eric and Group,

Did you parabolize one at at time, or try to do equal figuring to each,
then test both.
If I need to go back to a sphere, is pressing on one, then using it on the
other a bad idea?  The intent would be to match focal lengths.

Am I making too big a deal out if this since 2% variation is considered acceptable?
