For me it is an excellent lens! http://www.photo.net/photodb/folder?folder_id=462925 Saludos desde Barcelona Luis -----Mensaje original----- De: lug-bounces+luisripoll=telefonica.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+luisripoll=telefonica.net@leica-users.org]En nombre de G Medina Enviado el: mi?rcoles, 01 de junio de 2005 5:18 Para: lug@leica-users.org Asunto: [Leica] Elmar 2.8 50mm: Current or Previous Version? According to Erwin Putts, the current model is a stop or two ahead of its predecessor. Just this fact alone should be enough for one to decide on the current model, and leave the previous model at the camera store. But, it seems there is something aesthetically nicer about the previous version. It just "feels" more sure in the hand than the current model, to me. Wide open the current model is better no doubt, but how do you feels about these two lenses in terms of quality, handling, feel, and subjective performance. If I recall correctly, they are identical in terms of size and weight? __________________________________ Discover Yahoo! Find restaurants, movies, travel and more fun for the weekend.
