If you restrict your thinking to any single line of lens maker you will miss out on the many special characteristics of lenses that don't have direct comparisons from other makers. A Wollensak Verito is not exactly the same as a Kodak Portrait lens, and somehow I have both of them. I also have Schneider, Rodenstock, Fuji and Nikkor. When it comes to the supply and demand for these LF lenses, it would be shortsighted to get hung up on a single line. Try one, try many, but get started and don't overthink it...
And, if you want to compare and debate MTF curves, well, you've come to the right place!
