This is true when it's true. From personal experience, older lenses, whether manual focus or autofocus, can vary widely in quality. The sharpest lens I own, and I've used it extensively and can make that statement, is a 55mm f/3.5 Micro that dates to the late 60s. The second sharpest is a 55mm f/2.8 AF Micro that dates to 1987. Admittedly, these two lenses don't have the versatility of a modern zoom lens with VR.

Yeah, me too.
