Thanks Nathan,

Just thought I'd show what a 1960's f1.2 lens could do;  No vignetting, no
pincushion or barrel distortions and it focuses under half a meter.   The
only problem it seems to exhibit (besides big and heavy) is a yellow cast,
but that can be fixed.   The lens can be had for $300-500 and with an
adapter fits Leica M, Sony Ax, and others.
