It is difficult to understand why some lenses are so much more expensive than others. Leica lenses are difficult to understand with regard to pricing. Actually, the prices of Zeiss Contax lenses are even more difficult to understand. Their 300 F 2.8 lens is $12,000. Many of their other lenses are relatively inexpensive (compared to Leica). Tom Shea
