Interesting, but probably not practical for normal photography. I very much doubt the claim that it breaks the diffraction limit (MTF=0 at Cutoff frequency = 1/(f-number x wavelength) ), maybe they mean less diffraction than other lenses because the lenses can be very thin and relatively large (wide aperture) compared to other dedicated lenses for the subject it's shooting.

Cheers,
Bart
