But that's YOUR opinion.  For years many have made due with slow lenses.  I
use a 58mm F5.6 on my 6x7cm Rapid Omega and love it.  Yes, its slow.  But
made this Biogon-type lens will amaze you.

I have very little use for a 70mm f/5.6 lens at $1200 or so. And less use
for a zoom. Leica's 28/35/50 f/4 makes much more sense to me, although it
is a bit too pricey for my needs and I want more speed.
