Faneuil,
The following image I posted with the 60 Elmarit.  In general it is a very
sharp lens without the higher contrast of the latest designs.  What does
that mean?  You can see really fine detail in images taken with the 60, but
it doesn't have the really sharp divisions that you might see in the veins
of a leaf as you would with the 100.

This link is the 105 APO EL Nikkor that is truly a diffraction limited lens.
You see the very sharp edges in what is otherwise a soft item; a newly
opened leaf.

Tomorrows dose of spring was taken with the 60 so please take a look.
