I read the Shutterbug article again and I find it hard to believe they are lying as he says they are... Seems to be many differences between them.

The article gave a few reasons how digital : lenses are optimized. When I first heard of so called 'Digital' lenses I said 'yeah right'. But the thing that caught my mind as being a possibility was not so much flare from outside light sources per se but rather the light reflecting off the sensor and back towards the lens and then reflecting back into the sensor etc. Supposedly the digital lenses have more anti-reflective coating to prevent that. I'm no expert like Vlad, but that sounded plausible to me. Greg
