Evaluation of old lenses


Whenever I come across with some reports or impressions on old lenses especially made by Ernst Leitz Solms GMBh, I mourn and lament. The condition of object are not always well settled and maintained, they were not estimated their original and innate capability and potentials. 

Mold and dust particles causing cloudiness and peeling of the edge lacquer can lead to poor image quality and the occurrence of flare and ghosting.

Consequently, we should restore them as original condition if we try to know their potentials fairly, of course the best care must be paied especially not to wipe out delicat and sbtle coating layer---difficult for layman.

The subtle differences in spherical aberration correction should be discussed under fair and correct establishment of any conditions. It is not an area that amateurs can easily enter.
