The cron is just about pocketable in --my-- jacket, the lux is not. This is important to me, perhaps not to you. The chrome version of the lux is really heavy, but the chrome cron is just a bit on the heavy side (compared to the black non-asph cron that I have). Funnily enough the weight difference between the black cron and lux is minimal. Both are just over 100 g (a bit less than 4 oz) heavier that the non-asph cron. >Hey all, >I'm in the market for a new 35mm lens.
