Both have fast 35mm Zeiss lenses. the T2 has a 38mm/2.8 lens. it's older technology, being over 10 years old now, a little on the big side and has a bit of shutter lag, but the lens is sharp, and it is tough. i ran my car over it once by accident. the T3 compressed the T2 prices to about $400. whenever i go to bergen county camera, there's a case of used T2's. - -rei - -- Rei Shinozuka shino@panix.com Ridgewood, New Jersey - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
