I looked at your work a the BALUG meeting here in Palo Alto and nearly everything I saw was stunningly sharp. It leaped right off of the film. I think APO and internal focus would translate into "heavy." Your work is really great now. Just keep doing it the way you are doing it. You certainly have found the correct formula.
