Those who don't cite > it's weight and size, not performance.... Hi Group - I'm confused. Eric writes "...the next one is going to be a 21 Elmarit..." and then he describes the characteristics of this lens. Am I reading this right? Is there a 21mm Aspheric Elmarit now available? Or does the "... Everyone I've talked to who has one loves it..." refer to the non- aspheric design which is in the current Leica catalog? I'm a Leica novice but I thought that the 21mm/f2.8 Elmarit-M (Part No. 11 134) was NOT an aspheric design. Is there another version - now available - which is? Thanks. -- Wolfgang =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Wolfgang Sachse Cornell University sachse@msc.cornell.edu http://www.msc.cornell.edu/~sachse =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
