    As often and widely believed, newer-modern is always better than old..

    IMO, often not true depending on print image needs. That said, and having used-owned a good number of Fujinon lenses in the past (only ones that remain are SWD series, AS-CS and etc are all gone), definitely biased towards the Kodak.

    The final choice is really yours as this will be the tool you'll be using for your prints. Suggest, keeping what appeals to you and move on.

    Um, er, ah, if coverage is worth much to you the Fuji has lots more. You have both lenses. How much does each weigh?

    Curious, why is image circle or coverage always a deciding factor for lens choice?

    IMO, that should NOT be the single deciding factor, for more than a few image circle, coverage, "sharp" and tiny size are it.

    Bernice, what part of "if" don't you understand?
