Wouldn\'t you have, accidentally, some shots with that Tessar wide open with OOF highlights? I\'m curious how that version of the Tessar renders that kind of background (my experience is with an old 50/2.8 in M42 mount).

Sure, I\'ll do that for you later tonight or tomorrow night. But I think it should be known that this lens isn\'t that great at 2.8 \"wide open\" nor stopped all the way down at f/22. Here, check out this animation; Look at the windshield vertical stabilizer bar (focus point) and notice the softness at f/2.8. Also notice how the colors and micro-contrast go all to crap at f/22. So I try to avoid those stops. In between 2.8 and 4.0 (at about 3.4) it\'s just fine though - same as it is at f/4.0. But whatever, this lens usually sells for under $200 ($80 ~ $175) so it\'s relevant I guess. Here\'s that anim:
