Subject: [Leica] 135mm 2.8 question
From: Alex Brattell <alex@zetetic.co.uk>

There's never any mention of the 135mm 2.8 goggled lens for the M.
I'd consider one for the occassional portrait or stage photography (can't
quite reach over the orchestra pit with the 90mm). Wouldn't be able to
justify a new 3.4 apo as 135mm is not a favourite focal length for me.
Is this lens unpopular due to its size, or performance or both?

Thanks
Alex
