<<  In my judgement, and apparent judgement of many on this listserve,
 the lenses designed under the old philosophy, are not merely of superb
 quality -- they are unique in their characteristics.  >>

They were of fine quality for their day, but their day has gone.  They are
unique -- with unique distortions and unique lack of resolution and contrast
compared to today's lenses.
