Greetings to all.  This week is a bit different.  I was digging through
some of my 50ish mm lenses and thought I would show examples which
unfortunately I didn't take the same image.  Anyway, starting in the late
50's

This one goes back to the 60's although the design was from the mid 40"s at
Zeiss:

A 60's lens:

Now we go back to a prewar uncoated Zeiss Sonnar:

Last, a prewar uncoated Zeiss 35 Biogon.  No, it doesn't quite touch my
sensor.

All the best.
