But if Solms doesn't replace the 2/90 R Summicron and introduces only an APO M version, they would increase the request, demand (? word) for the M6-0.85. The M series would be (almost) perfect with the fine 21, 24, 35, 50, 75, and 90 mm lenses. On the other hand, the R Leica pro's still have the 1.4/80 or APO 100 mm. Maybe Solms wants to find out first, how the market accepts the R8 ? Just an idea.
