[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]Ladies and Gentlemen: It now is time for me to seek counsel from this august group. As I had mentioned earlier in my R8 encomium, I am currently trying to put together the "perfect" M and R outfits. I currently have an M6, 35/2 Asph, 50/2, 90/2.8 Elmarit-M, an R8, 35/2, 100/2.8 APO, 180/3.4 APO, SL with 50/2 (2 cam). I am considering getting a wide angle and cannot decide between the 21/2.8 Asph. for the M and the (new style) 19/2.8 for the R. I am also considering replacing the 35/2 R with the new 35-70/4. For the R, I also want an 80/1.4 (I had one and foolishly sold it), a 35/1.4 and also the new 50/1.4 (but I think I'll wait for it to appear used). I also eventually want a 70-180/2.8 APO and a 2X APO converter for the R. For the M, the 35/1.4 Asph. and the 90/2 Asph. I also want another M body and probably another R8 (or successor) instead of the SL. I would appreciate any thoughts, comments, etc. Thanks. Jay Coleman
