Subject: [Leica] Do you lust for a Thambar?

According to the rumorsites, Leica will reissue the 90mm f2.2 Thambar 
sometime in 2018. 
The Thambar was a portrait lens with a intentionally applied soft focus 
filter hat had a circular spot to ensure the soft effect. 

Seems like reissue will be a common theme at Leica. See the 28mm Summaron 
for the first lens in the series.
