Johnny asked: 
"Erwin, do you have a test of the lens on your site?"
No, but here are the results:
7% contrast at 2 lines per mm in the centre, dropping rapidly in the
corners. In the field astigmatism and a strong amount of flare does degrade
the rendition of even coarse detail.
Overall a lens that is not as good as a well executed pinhole "lens".
Performance is low, but price-performance ratio is excellent and it probably
is still better than a Thambar.
