Nimslo's have 4 lenses and I believe are the sharpest of the bunch you
mention. Theoretically with 4 lenses you will have more depth. The main
consideration is whether or not anyone is printing for 4 lenses. I've
heard that those who develop and print for the 4 lens cameras only will
use 3 of the frames, since the majority of cameras in use today have 3
lenses. I may have old information.
