Zeiss Lens MTF Chart Explanation

Recommended Posts

I looked at the lens section of this site. But the MTF concept is too

complicated for me to

understand. I downloaded some MTF charts from http://www.zeiss.com

website. I try to

compare the MTF between 80 CB and 80 CFE. Could you explain what is

the ideal curve

(diagram 1 and 2, k=2.8, k=5.6) in this case and from the curve, could

you tell approximately

how much better is the 80 CFE lens?

 

I know that a purchasing decision based on MTF is not good. But just

want to know something

basic about MTF since the information is available there. Thanks!

Thanks. That's exactly what I'am looking for. By the way, several months ago, I bought Earnest Wildi's Ultimate Image, trying to know the tricks of obtaining the best image. Although that book teaches some basic amateur stuff, It really doesn't fit the title well. Photodo.com is the site I will be very passionate about. It delivers!

 

Also, I somewhat feel regret that I bought the Nikon gear in 35mm. It seems that Contax offers better image quality.
