Doug,
when you get around to trying it, please post your results here.
I am much interested how a semi-modern SD/LD/APO tele compares to
an older much simpler tele design I think the SMC K 400/5.6 is
according to Boz. "Resolution" wise and contrast-wise. I found
some older non-SD teles to have good performance, but that
was stopped down a bit (1-2 stops), and actually the lens was for
6x6cm format.... 4/300mm Pentacon (it's a damn best for the money lens
for 6x6cm you can get, it doesn't cost like a car or house <g>).
good light!
