I use it on my M9, so I guess it is not bad as a benchmark... Wink
Resolvance-wise, it is on par with the newest Zeiss ZM lenses!
It has a milder contrast than ZM, but that it's not necessarily a bad thing - actually,
sometimes it can be even a good thing!

Oh but I know well, look here, this is whole frame:

whole image


And these are crops!! :




OK, coating is not on same level, corners are not on same level... but 90% of the frame is perfectly sharp,
and it's a 50 years old lens, cheap clone of an even older lens! Very Happy
