Having recently run into the use of the tern Tele-SuperAchromat in the
Hasselblad literature I was under the impression they were telling me it was
even better corrected 4 colors instead of 3?!.
Four colors?! RGB and black!?:)
Which four colors they might be talking about never ceases to amuse me CMYB?!:)
That's an APO of a different color!
I'm sure it's more than hype.
