  The recent 208Pb(e,e'p)207Tl data from NIKHEF-K at high missing momentum
(p_m>300 MeV/c) are compared to theoretical results obtained with a fully
relativistic formalism previously applied to analyze data on the low missing
momentum (p_m < 300 MeV/c) region. The same relativistic optical potential and
mean field wave functions are used in the two p_m-regions. The spectroscopic
factors of the various shells are extracted from the analysis of the low-p_m
data and then used in the high-p_m region. In contrast to previous analyses
using a nonrelativistic mean field formalism, we do not find a substantial
deviation from the mean field predictions other than that of the spectroscopic
factors, which appear to be consistent with both low- and high-p_m data. We
find that the difference between results of relativistic and nonrelativistic
formalisms is enhanced in the p_m<0 region that will be interesting to explore
experimentally.
