    Bravo!
    This expression is true!

    I plan to buy a lens Congo F=400mm f/8 for $285.
    Thanks for the good feedback on this lens!

    Ken Bromwell once explained the distinction quite frankly and honestly with me in person. He called his own Osaka versions "good general purpose commercial lenses; but not specialty lenses".
