There were some where, side by side, the pre-asph was preferable but others where that was reversed... john ----Original Message----- If anyone has, even temporarily, the ASPH and non-ASPH versions of the same lens, I'd love to be able to compare identical shots taken with the two. Herb _____________________________________ I (unusually for me) carried a second lens today and tried for some things to compare: 1) 2001 E46 50mm Summilux pre-asph, 6-bit and tweaked in Solms this year 2) 2010 50mm Summilux asph FLE, 6-bit Shots at f1.4 or f4.0-f5.6 and lenses are mixed up between A and B. All handheld so not exactly same framing, sun was slightly variable but lens were kept on same aperture. http://johnmcmaster.com/lens/50lux Open in new window (1200 pixels) to compare side by side and let me know what you think..... john
