I am asking for opinions based on experience. I am hoping for discourse on qualities felt to be inherent in the differing designs, or likewise faults. I understand that individual lenses will possibly (likely) deviate from the mean, but the mean still exists. You know... advice. What I failed to do (and bad on me I admit) was to dig in the archives. I'll do that tonight. From what I gather from two other responders, and other private correspondence, is that the "thin" tele-elmarit is a good place to start given that it is 1.) good glass, 2.) smallish relative to the other possibilities, and 3.) not a hyper-priced rarity. I am not so arrogant (or deep in the pockets) that I am not anxious to take advantage of good advice. Thanks to y'all that generously provided it (this time, the past time(s), and when I next ask for it!) cheers Jack McLain Tucson, AZ http://jackmclain-photography.dotcommunity.net - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
