I have been thinking of getting a second 50mm (don't tell my wife this, but
I'd sure like a second M bod) second hand to use for those f16 type of days,
where wide open performance is not as crucial.  Do you guys have any
thoughts on this.  I have a 50mm summicron and was thinking of getting a
vintage 50mm f3.5 elmar in M mount?  Is this practical, or should I just
stick with my 50mm cron or buy a new style collapsible?
