The experts will correct me but did early coated Summitars have a multibladed iris and the later ones an iris with fewer blades? Does this account for the Bokeh in Aaron's pictures (later version lens). I am interested because I am eagerly awaiting the return of a multibladed Summitar that I bought which is being CLA'd.
