[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]Am I the only one who grows weary of these "What do you think is the best (fill in the blank)?" questions? Every Leica lens is different and serves a different purpose. Every Leica lens is the "Best" for someone and some purpose. Every photographer has her or his idiosyncrasies and preferences. From five different lenses Terry forms two combinations and asks which we would each prefer. I for one would be far more interested in why Terry chose these kits and what HE has in mind for HIS photography and what lenses HE would choose and why. Not that I don't enjoy endless and repetitive threads on the best combination of this and that, mind you. - -----Original Message----- From: Terry Sham [mailto:tsham@netvigator.com] Sent: Thursday, January 04, 2001 1:07 PM To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Subject: [Leica] Outfit Opinion I would like to ask your opinion about a M-series outfit.

Summicron-M 35mm 1:2 ASPH Noctilux-M 50mm 1:1 APO-Summicron-M 1:2 ASPH Thanks Terry Sham
