I chose this lense because I had read that this DR version of lenses used kind of selected material to achieve required performance in the close range that may(I thought) also provide some extra performance in the normal range. However, since this is the only 50 mm Summicron lense I have, it is not easy for me to compare its performance to other versions of Summicron 50 mm lenses myself. I am very much satisfied with the images my lense produces, but I am curious about the difference among the various 50 mm Summicrons. I appreciate if anyone give me any kind of comments or experience on this subject. Thanks in advance. Tak Oka Tokyo
