Lucky you with all that new equipment! ;-) I had a great difficulty choosing between the 28mm and theTri-elmar 28-35-50, but finely the 50mm is really not my favorite focal, so I bought the colapsible Elmar 2.8/50 just to use in case (very funny lense). One day if I make money I will buy a 35mm with a large apperture (I have no lense under 2.8 except the 90/2.0) Things started quite roughly with the Leica system, but now I am really enjoying them, especially when I hear the sound or should I say no sound, of the shutter (when compared with my Nikon or Hasselblad and its Diesel motor...). I wish you a lot of pleasure with your new Leica. > > Hi Robert. I'm sorry to hear about the M6 body > troubles you have had.
