He claims that the lens is both sharper and cheaper than the corresponding (Kodak) Ektanar. I'm a little wary of buying a lens made by a company I've never heard of, especially when there seems to be no address or manufacturer's name on the box (although there may be one inside). Does anyone have any idea what this brand is like? While I'm at it I'd also appreciate any comments people have about the Kodak line, and especially the characteristics of their auto-focus (hunting, etc.).
