Subject: [Leica] Leica-R lens Question

Folks,

What is Summicron and Summilux means in the 35 mm lens Leica-R system?
Is it true that the silver chrome R8 body weight more than the black
one? Is it true that the ASPH lens would give more contrast than other
lens?  I am debating wheather to get the silver chrome or the black R8.
And the 35 f1.4 or the 35 f2 or the 35-70 f2.8 ASPH. Appreciate feed
backs. Please no insulting response on such a basic question. Thanks.
