Hey. I guess this Hoosier plowboy ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
either. I _must_ agree with Dave. The numbers aren't everything. It's
the end product, the photograph, that counts.
Even if you do want to consider things like MTF and % barrel/pincushion
distortion, there are other aspects just as important that differentiate a
superb lens from the rest: flare control, cos^4 vignetting (falloff),
chromatic aberration, and bokeh, to name four.
