Alf -
There as an old American saying that "You pay your money
and you take your choice" and "a difference of opinion is what
makes horse racing".
You might like the sharpness of a Dali painting whereas I
might prefer the softness of the French Impressionists.
There are excellent photographer who have sharp lenses &
put diffusion screens in front of them for an effect, and others
that stop down to f:22 so that every detail in the picture is sharp.
Tell me the truth Alf - what is your profession? Certainly
you are not a photographer. Are you a preacher or more likely
a school teacher. * Hey man - no offense, that was meant to be
funny.*
Your American Freund,
Joy

Besides, it's remarkable to me, that LUGlers, who are in search of fine lens
characteristics or the lost Leitz bokeh, even prefer the f/1.5 Summarit to
modern Leitz lenses, which actually is a coated post war Xenon from
Schneider.
