I love its size and the tonality it gives me, and most of the sharpness problems I've had with it have been my own. However, after reading all the enthusiastic comments about the current 90 Elmarit-M, I've been wondering about buying one. My question is whether there would be a noticeable diffence in image quality given the way I work. I shoot exclusively hand-held on color neg (Reala or RG200), generally at f/4 to f/11. Can anyone who has used both these lenses comment on the differences in sharpness, contrast and image structure under these conditions? Paul Chefurka
