Subject: [Leica] Advice on 280mm Telyt

I'd like to get a medium telephoto for my birding excursions. I'm  
currently using a 560mm f6.8 Telyt and 200mm f4 Telyt(viso mount) on  
a Canon 20D. I've been looking at something in the 280mm range. I'd  
love to have a 280/f4 R Telyt but they cost a bit more then a new M8.

I see the 280/f4.8 lenses with Viso mount at a reasonable price. Does  
anyone have any experience or information if this is a reasonably  
good lens? I'd like to stick with Leica as I could also use it on my  
M8 and M film cameras or if R mount on the Canon or my R8.
