> Scroll down...OM-4 in NASA spec! What's that lens though?
Something that isn't obvious is that all our beautiful lenses are just
junk in space....'cause the careful design that went into them, all the
corrections, etc. are based on a glass to air interface....which is NOT
the same as a glass to vacuum interface. An old friend of mine
worked on the redesign of the Hasselblad lenses that were used in the
space program: one-offs for glass to vacuum. Think of the cost!
