Re: 3D quality in a lens?

[Peter J. Alling]

A lens with the "3D quality" actually it may be, probably is, superior 
in one or all of the traditional metrics.    It's like Boke, you know it 
when you see it.  No one except the truly literal minded would think 
that the image produced was truly a 3d rendition.

It means that you can't describe it as being particularly good in any 
traditional metrics (sharpness/distortion/contrast/etc).

What is meant when a lens is described as having
a "great 3 dimensional quality"?
