Thanks, Shell. It's not that I believe in numbers. It's just that I don't
want to buy a lens just to resell and perhaps loose money in a month or so.

I'm ignorant, Jens.  I don't even know what an MTF thing is or means.  I
just look at the results over a period of many photos and negatives. Get a
feel for how the lens operates, its construction, etc. Truly a worthless
approach for those who like and believe in numbers.
