You would not have access to either companies figures. Neither would anyone else on line.
By the way, who sells the most cars? Would that make that brand the "gold standard" when you include Mercedes Benz S class? BMW 7xx class, Ferrari, Aston Martin?
Get it?

Get it?[/QUOTE Schnieder & rodenstock lenses sell for about the same price.
[QUOTE=robert amsden;364951]You might also want to factor in to total sales all those Caltar and Sinaron lenses that are also made by Rodenstock.
Jim Galli?
Jeff at badger graphic told me that the Rodenstock Sironar-S is the best of the "normal" lenses, but that Schneider's wide angel, telephoto and macro lens are also extremely good. I personally love the 210mm Apo-Sironar-W for a semi wide angle; I suppose he was talking about lenses still in production.
I've got a 90/4.5 Grandagon-N and Schneider 110XL. The Schneider is a bit cooler and has a bit more microcontrast than the 90mm Grandagon. The reason I purchased the 110XL was simply for reasons of image circle. But in no way does it blow the 90mm Rodie out of the water. In fact once you've scanned/printed, any subtle differences in resolution/color between the lenses are negated in post-production.
Damn right. I can't believe this thread is 3 pages long. Everyone knows Hermagis lenses are the Gold standard.
Maybe Foto4 will be called Bretton Woods 2....
