I stick to my words. I am not talking about
"sharpness" (which quite imperfectly describes the
quality of a lens) or color fringing etc. I was
talking about contrast. It is certainly not dull. Its

I don't know the FA31ltd but from the pictures I have
seen it has a totally different color reproduction .
