Thanks Mike - very interesting. I just read it. It's a shame that he didn't
have some illustrations of the 35/2 Summicron which he said had good bokeh on
both sides of focus:
<< The rounded corners [of the light intensity curve] can be expected to
result in smooth, soft out-of-focus images. ... The 'bright core' type circle
of confusion is observed with the 35/2 Summicron on both sides of the point
of focus. >>
I'd like to know how you'd accomplish that, ie how much and in what
'direction(s)' the spherical aberration is corrected. And whether anyone has
'tested' the bokeh of some Zuiko lenses, to see if they are good on both
sides of focus.
Off to take some photos of some distant streetlights (not really!)
