Interesting document. MTF looks pretty flat, but not so good
for v. fine structures (40 lp/mm).

But since the Tri-Elmar has a built-in hood, why does the
front ring have notches in it like there's a hood for mounting?
The front ring design isn't quite the same as for the 21 and
24 ASPH's, but spare-parts bin does come to mind!  Also, have
any of you noticed that the M6 on the cover of the pdf document
doesn't seem to have the front cover glass on the viewfinder?  
(Just picking little holes in my one-and-only favourite camera
maker.)
