I was looking at Schniediers white paper stuff on
their current lenses which can be found at
www.schneideroptics.com . Maybe I misread. And I did
say under lab conditions. I'm under no illusions that
I can get anywhere near that but then again I'm pretty
sure I can't get near 80-100 lpm with my OM or indeed
if someone gave me that ultra zeiss lens that is
reputed to have like 500 lpm (250/8?) either even with
a tripod.
Frankly, it kinda scares me when you look at all the
stuff the image has to go through before it can be
displayed that we get any image at all. Imagine you
have a lens like the Zeiss capable of 500 lpm.
500 immeditly goes down to 100 or less if you decide
to use color film or 150 if you use TMAX. If you
handhold the camera there goes another 50 lpm. If the
subject is moving there goes some more. Then you send
the film to be processed and then printed (lose
another 10 lpm to the enlarger, lose some more to the
laser printer or whatever it is that is used. So
eventually you have a 4x6 that has probably 10-20 or
less lpm no matter what you do.
