[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]Hello-- About one year ago I purchased a good user condition M3 ds with a 50mm Summicron. (Mid 70's I think....black, Wetzlar) I also got a 35 Summicron last year. (black, Canadian) I'm wondering if anybody has suggestions for a 90mm lens. A good quality used Elmarit, Tele-elmarit, or Summicron models are probably what I'm looking at. Any thoughts on pros/cons of each? I realize probably any of these are FINE for my needs, but always welcome input. Here's the twist-- I've heard/read the Voigtlander lenses are extremely high quality and can fit with adapter to the M3. Prices are reasonable for my budget . Any pitfalls to these lenses? I am not a terribly serious photographer but am getting more so with each passing season. I may be getting the Leica bug. Thanks for any ideas/suggestions Phil Sudberry
