Needless to say, it is not going to be quite as good as at f/5.6, but if you need to shoot at f/1.4 to make the picture, your decision is already made... Check out: http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Ridge/5545/ for some examples of photos made using a late model Summilux. Good luck. - -------------- Date: Sun, 29 Nov 1998 20:17:55 -0500 From: Ray & Kit Yuen <ryuen@ix.netcom.com> Subject: [Leica] 50-M Summicron vs Summilux Is it worth the extra money to buy the latest version of the 50mm-M Summilux over the Summicron? I want the extra f-stop, but do I lose sharpness at the wider apertures? TIA, - -Ray _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
