I understand fully that MTF doesn't mean anything, but I still want to see for 'entertainment purpose' only. Are those available anywhere?
 
I've searched for those too but found nothing. Some talk about them but give no references. Other say thery are on Cosina's japanese site: not knowing a word of the language I tried surfing the site anyways but came up to nothing.

Actually, MTF does mean something. 😉 While it doesn't tell the whoe story, it is useful information about certain aspects of lens perfrmance.

I too have been frustrated in attempts to find MTF charts for CV lenses. However, Popular Photgraphy publishes performance charts in their lens tests, which are different but whcih are based at least in part on MTF charts. They explain these "SQF" charts at their website.

They have reviewed & tested the following CV lenses over the past 7 years: 15/4.5, 25/4, 35/2.5, 35/1.7, 40/1.4, 50/3.5, 50/1.5, & 75/2.5.

At least some of these reviews can be found on their website.

Your ideas of entertainment are certainly different from mine 😀
