We all talk about lens character and "magic". Not knowing all the tradeoffs that go into lens design I found this article interesting. Particularly the implication that getting faster autofocus changes the type of optics used and the "character" of the lens. Probably why many manual focus lenses have character. https://www.fujirumors.com/the-magic-of-the-fujinon-xf-35mm-f-1-4-explained-and-why-fujifilm-should-not-make-an-xf-35mm-f-1-4-mk-ii/ However I don't know if there is a "magic" chart comparable to an MTF graph.
