The 65mm Angulon really "picks up" at aperture 22.
It is probably designed for this apperture. I will remember this.

65/6.8 Angulon:

19 24 48 f/6.8
34 42 48 f/11
34 54 60 f/16
60 60 42 f/22

Also the test of the 90mm Angulon against the 110mm Symmar is interesting.
The 90mm is better than I expected. I have one.....so this is good.
The 180mm Tele-Xenar is probably not to bad either.
