They did (FSQ85), and I'd expect it to outperform everything mentioned so far in this thread - but at $3000 it's pricey.

Why ?

I figure it should perform as well as the FSQ-106; correction at least as good as the LOMO but an even wider field - and flatter. It's probably not very significant for visual use, but the request was for the best.
