I'm sure there have been improvements over the years, but the main thing is are you happy with the results. See you not compairing this lens with another at the same time so what difference does it make-none. Now I can tell you that I have a 90 f2 that was converted from a 2 to 3 cam and it will walk all over anything that is coming out of Japan and Most of Germany today. I've done side by side tests with the N**** and there is no comparison as to color or contrast. If your happy, then take the money you saved and take a vacation.
