Ernst,

I haven't measured dmaxes but what I've seeen is in a range where
small variations don't make a big difference (say, around 2.4).
Don't know about transparency either. As for shift in tone, I don't
remember last year's Lucia being all that warm. I haven't really
worked with these closely enough to know more.
