Hi all,
 
I would appreciate your experienced opinions about the Collapsible Summicron
50mm. I had the "Rigid" Summicron, I've sold it because it had fungus and
make a lot of haze, but I regret the nice richness of grey tones that this
lens gave me.
 
Now I have 3 lenses of 50 mm: Summicron model of the year 198/199...,
Summilux (1964), and the new Elmar. I'm looking for the Collapsible
Summicron to have the "nostalgia" subtle tones of the past.
 
Could I have some opinions about how it will compare with my actual 50mm
lenses (Summilux and Elmar)?
 
Thanks in advance for your opinions and advice
 
Saludos desde Barcelona
Luis
