What's the current state of AR coatings? My current lenses have a lab coating, which was only identified to me as Satin. It was suggested at the time that its performance might be similar to that of Alize, but I find it just as difficult to keep clean as all my previous AR coatings. I gather I'm not the only one who finds that frustrating. :)
I've seen some references to more advanced coatings that build on the advantages of Alize, but have seen no names. Is there anything I should investigate?
(I should mention that I have previously asked this in another thread, where it was a secondary question and perhaps eclipsed by the main question. I thought it might have a better chance of getting a response if it could stand on its own.)
