In response to an enquiry about the Tele-Elmarit, I described the collapsible rubber shade for the late Tele-Elmarits and the 90-C (catalogue #11250 with it's companion #11252 lens cap) as the worst item Leica had ever offered. This shade was way too shallow and way too soft. It offered precious little shade. It would half collapse without any prompting and vignette your frame. It offered no protection from bumps and bangs. The cap had a tendency to disappear without notice. Eventually, which was sooner than you would have thought, it would dry out and split along it's seam. So, what do YOU think is the worst item Leica has ever offered and why? I pray, however, that this does not degenerate into a Visoflex argument and filters are not eligible for discussion.
