The newer version has one aspheric surface, the older one has two. Different glass in the later version makes it a better lens, so Leica has said. Not much better, I'm sure. The price difference is because of the rarity of the older lens. Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.
