The 135/4.5 Hektor, for Ms is far from being a bad lens. There was a fine article on it in the Viewfinder magazine a year or so ago. Its very versatile on the Visoflex too. It's light, which is more than can be said for the Tele Elmarit which doesn't save much length at all! I had a Hektor, acquired the Tele Elmarit, then found a cheap 135/4 Elmar and sold the previous 2 lenses. The Elmar, like the Hektor, is a long focus lens and therefore light, it's a later design which is better corrected but the difference is slight in day to day use. Perhaps the article was written by the Leitz marketing department? regards, Jem > ---------- > From: Kurt Miska[SMTP:k.miska@french-rogers.com] > > LUGers, > I ahve two questions. > 1- How do you post something that you want to sell?
