[Leica] Leica 75mm Summilux vs 80mm Summilux-R?

[vick.ko at sympatico.ca (Vick Ko)]

Oh, yes, Frank, good reminder.

I have an M9.

But no digital R solution.  I sold my DMR due to weight and fear of 
hard-failure, and I'm not really a fan of the Leitax solution.

So the 75 Summilux wins, because I can shoot film or files.
