I looked through the images I made with the Steinheil Munchen Culminar 
85/2.8 lens, made in 1950, to see if I could find a clear one to 
evaluate.  This small image of a Blue Jay in open shade was cropped from 
the 100% image and was not resized.  It represents less than 7% of the 
area of the original image.  I did go through my normal post processing 
routine, including Focus Magic and Neat Image.

Considering the difficulty I had in manually focusing at f/4 in the 
shade, I was favorably impressed by the lens.  Made with a Leica LTM 
adapter on the Fuji X-E1.
