It really depends what you want it for. If you are shooting landscapes, then maybe the 24 would be better. For SP the difference between 28 and 35 is huge. Alex Webb for example, uses the 35/28 combo. Play around with the frame selectors to see if the 28 gives you want you want - if not get the 24mm Julian - ----- Original Message ----- From: "tm" <leicar8@earthlink.net> To: "Leica Users Group" <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> Sent: Friday, February 16, 2001 5:21 PM Subject: [Leica] Elmarit 2.8/28 mm M lens > I'm contemplating buying the above lens so as to have the ability to shoot > beyond the 64 degree angle of my 35 mm Summicron at times, even though the > Elmarit goes only to 76 degrees.
