Light and easy to hold while on both my R7 and R8, it produces astounding slides and prints because of the apochromatic color correction. I've blown many people away upon showing them the effect of the latter. topher wrote: > To All the Leica Sages Out There; > This humble novice/lurker is thinking about getting a 180 R APO; I was > salivating over the 2.8, but my trusty salesman also had a 3.4 APO (although > I didn't actually see it).
