Dear Alf,
   I do get carried away when it comes to travel.  Since it is mostly the
archeological sites I visit (and ancient artifacts museums), I feel
justified in talking about trips to Rome, Delphi, Ephesis, Jerusalem,
Amman, in terms of time travel.  I am also a Star Trek fan -- so I've been
known to do it both ways.
   No, I did not find a 2/35 Summicron.  I'm not sure I spelled it right,
but I found the more common 35mm Summiron (no c) which has a 3.5 maximum
apperture.   Thanks for your interest.             Tom
