  Ted ----- I'm not too sure if even you are serious, because you know as
  well as anyone that a perception cannot be measured.  Both you and
  others find extreme sharpness to be an ultimate attribute, while Alf  &
  I  find the softness & etherealness  (bokeh?)  of the early Leitz lenses 
  that many Great Leica Photographers used, to be to our taste. Maybe
  it is because I matriculated in Hollywood  where sharpness is not so
  desirable in the glamorous fantasy world.  Its better to hide a pimple
  some times ---- but then we are talking apples & oranges not pimples.

  hey folks, 
  
  Why am I getting this feeling no one is taking this "topic?" seriously? :)
  
  Because we "bokeh the mold"  after the first one! :)
