[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I have a 35/f2 Summicron-1969...Love it. My 35/3.5 Summaron LTM is a great lens-small and compact. But not as compact as the 35 Elmar. I have heard good reviews on the 35/1.7 Ultron, but I just bought a 21/f4 Skopar so I'll have to wait on that one. I think I use my 35/f2 Summicron the most out of any other leica lens. The 35/3.5 and 35/2.8 lenses are very underrated. and can usually be bought without a small loan.
