Pardon me, but aren't all Componons six element lenses?  The Componar is
a 4 element lens.  Perhaps you didn't mean to infer that it's something
other than a six element lens, just that it's not as good as current
lenses.  IAC, I agree that the Componon isn't quite as good as the
Componon-S, all things being equal.  For $30.00 it's a good deal,
indeed, and certainly a step up from the ancient Omegar that Bill's been
using.
