You mean the illustration in which pin point highlights are blow up one
inch: as in several hundred times? On page 32?
Zeiss doesn't make aspherical lenes do they?

I'm made darkroom fiber 16x20's with my Leica M glass most of them are
ASPH's there is no problem with bokeh and no problem with highlights and no
problem with a "hard look".
This is a long time LUG myth. And I'm afraid its pure baloney.
Leica is a quality lens company. They're not about to latch up to some
tricky techniques to raise the money on the glass and give funny in any way
results. They are not stupid. They can see a "hard Look" or textured
highlights before they come out with the lens.
