However, upon reflection I decided to get a 150mm enlarger lens instead. The collaposable lenses look great, and are very small and handy. However, I have a recent Sumicron and a Summarit, so it really doesn't make sense to get another 50mm lenses. But it would be cool to have one . . . . . Aincerely, Joe Stephenson ++++++++++++ Gary and Dawn wrote: I have been thinking of getting a second 50mm (don't tell my wife this, but I'd sure like a second M bod) second hand to use for those f16 type of days, where wide open performance is not as crucial. Do you guys have any thoughts on this. I have a 50mm summicron and was thinking of getting a vintage 50mm f3.5 elmar in M mount? Is this practical, or should I just stick with my 50mm cron or buy a new style collapsible? gary
