Well, in the original Modern Photo review of the VS1 90/2.5 Macro,
for all apertures, it resolved "only" (<g>) 50 to 64 lpm in the
center and "only" (<g>) 45 to 56 lpm in the corners at 1:50
magnification, while it did resolve 87 to 109 lpm in the center and
77 to 109 lpm in the corners at 1:9.7 magnification.  So, I guess
one could infer that the VS1 90/2.5 may have indeed been optimized
for closer distances - <g>.
