Hey Jerry,

Listen, I understand what you are saying. And I its not garage and I know all Summicrons are good never said they were bad. Example I use a 50 f2 Summitar and also got a 50mm f2 Rigid Summicron and to tell you the truth I really looked the image quality the Summitar was giving me not saying that the Summicron was bad by no means I just like the Summitar(a very underrated lens was a quote by Sherry at Golden Touch and I happen to agree with her). Everyone has different tastes and they do change. I'm just looking for a 35mm lens that has that certain feel kinda like the Summitar. Sorry maybe I should have been more detailed in what I'm looking for.

Character?  What is this garbage?  All Summicrons are good.
It is the photographer, the subject and the printer, that produces
the "character" in the pictures.  Don't use the excuse of the
wrong Summicron as an excuse for characterless pictures.

My favorite Summicron?  The 40mm Summicron C.  It has
replaced my 50mm DR, which I never used, and my 35mm
f2.8 Summaron.
