Hi,

Ken Rockwell may prefer to choose a lens over
another because of "personal heritage".

Are the Japanese lenses as good as the German?

Fuji has a line of 'NW' and 'CM' lenses. What do
you think of them?

Which Japanese lens do you already own or appeals
to you?

Have you tried the lens of the article, the 135mm. W
from Nikon?

Thank you, kind regards,

Ig
