It is a much later design and I would assume it would better the Grandagon. I do like the APO-Grandagons, though. Have you ever used the Nikkor AM 210mm f5.6? This is one of the sharpest macros I have ever used for large format. It is also very heavy - when you first pick it up in your hand it feels like a rock.
