If this proves to be the case, I will have to choose between a new 180mm Apo-Telyt-R/3.4 and a new 180mm Elmarit-R/2.8. Obviously, the 3.4 is lighter (by 60 grams though this is still 210 grams more than the old f4!), and the 2.8 faster. Can anyone give me some really good reasons to choose one over the other? Thanks. PS: Can anybody tell me when the 180/4 Elmar-R was officially discontinued? - ---------- David Young | Experience gained varies directly Victoria, CANADA | with equipment ruined. - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
