- cratermoon 6y ago"better" is subjective, though. They design the lens to meet certain technical criteria[1] for minimizing distortion, spherical and chromatic aberration, flare, diffraction, etc. They are optically near perfect. But are they better, really? Better than classic Leica Summicrons, Kodak Ektars, Schneider Xenars, Rodenstock Grandagon-Ns, or a Speed Graphic retrofitted with a 1940s 7" (185mm) Aero Ektar?
