Subject: [Leica] V35 lenses Q: Apo-Componon vs Focotar

Greetings

Has anybody upgraded their 40 mm 2.8 Leitz Focotar enlarger lens 
against a Schneider Apo-Componon HM 40mm 2.8 lens?

What were the improvements, if any, on prints enlarged between 12 and 
16x linear? Please state if  the camera lens used was ASPH or not, 
and what film was used.

Did autofocus work without problem (once readjusted)?

Thank you for your input.
