From the pictures this lens does not look as long as the last Tele-Elmarit. I wonder if this is the length overall, rather than the lenght from the mounting flange, or if this is the length with the lens hood. This is a lens that I am very interested in, as it likely will perform better than the T-E 90, and might be smaller in addition. A nice combination with the pre-ASPH 35 Summicron and 15 Heliar - a 3 lens combo that I take with me when rollerblading or some other activity where weight is an issue. * Henning J.
