Thank you for this very interesting and careful comparison. I always wondered if both lenses are the same, as the lens barrels seem to come from the same manufacturer of barrels. Your comparison confi ...

My personal opinion from practical experience: Traditionally, Chinon was a manufacturer of lens barrels and camera bodies. Chinon cameras were first sold with M42 thread-mount and later with Pentax PK ...

After 1973, Germany was a difficult market for Japanese camera and lens makers. Apart from strong, but expensive German brands (Leica, Zeiss, Rollei, even Praktica), the German market had been divided ...

Dear friend,
my ID at MFlenses is Fujinonuser. So this may explain my astonishment and wonder and perhaps anger. I have taken many shots with the Porst 1.2 / 50mm (which is identical in all respects ...

I agree that the Fujinon 1.2 ultra-fast lens is a multi-purpose lens, not only to be used at its widest aperture. Why is it that an ultra-wide lens may be sharper stopped down than a slower lens? Beca ...

I agree. An ultra-fast lens may be sharper (excepting the corners) than a slower lens at identical aparture stops due to its wider rear lens element. If you go for sharpness right up to the corners (a ...
