I shot two rolls with the 28/ Elmarit-R last week at a home show. I used it on an R8 to practice with TTL flash. I was blown away by the results. While I couldn't use a Tripod, and had to hand hold at speeds of 1/30 or 1/15, the results printed on 4x6 were stunning. Great color, great contrast, and I was surprised at the relative sharpness of the hand held shots which I expected to be soft and blurry. > I'll admit that there were a few occasions that made me want a wider lens, but if you can get a good used one it's worth adding to your bag. > Dan ( I never met a Leica lens I didn't like....) > Dan, Tank you for your opinion and experience. That will make me consider more seriously the Elmarit-R 28 mm. I have just seen a new one at a really interesting price (about 50% of the official price)... The lens was not exactly in my plans, but at that price, it becomes very interesting. May I perhaps ask you which other lens you are using with your Leica ? Regards Christian
