[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I need some help to choose a used 35mm lens for my M outfit to replace a Summicron I lent to a friend and never got back (my friend bought it from me). I am using a 40mm Summicron-C as a temporary replacement. I could just replace the 35mm Summicron with another, however I wondered about the pre-ASPH Summilux and also the ASPH Summicron, which now seems to be coming on to the used market in larger numbers. I would like my "new" lens to have the smooth bokeh of the Summicron. Does the ASPH share the "look" or the non-ASPH Summicron? Does the Summilux (pre-ASPH) also have smooth bokeh? Does sharpness suffer because of the f/1.4 maximum aperture? Questions ... questions ... but they are best asked before I buy! Thanks. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
