[Leica] FS: Summicron 28

[jshul at comcast.net (Jim Shulman)]

A few years ago the Viewfinder magazine ran a comparison of the Summicron 28
and the CV 28/1.9.  They found (in conventional large prints) that there was
no discernable difference from f 2.8 and smaller; at maximum aperture the
Summicron was marginally (though this was disputed) sharper at the edges.

So, for Arche's purposes, the CV is probably just dandy.  Mine was a
terrific lens; I only sold it because I rarely used that focal length.

Oh!
I forgot that people did that nowadays.
I guess even a coke bottle can produce enough resolution for much of  
the scanning done these days.
