Tahnks for your opinion, Saludos cordiales Luis -----Mensaje original----- De: lug-bounces+luisripoll=telefonica.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+luisripoll=telefonica.net@leica-users.org] En nombre de Don Dory Enviado el: jueves, 04 de octubre de 2007 0:51 Para: Leica Users Group Asunto: Re: [Leica] new 1.5 50 Sonnar Luis, They do make this lens in M mount so not too much to worry about if you want the look. I was able to use Tom's lens in Germany last year and it is quite good. I am with Mark R. about using the best lens so I will stay with the 50 ASPH but I do have the Russian version in LTM and with luck and a stay of carpel tunnel will have the original 1.5 back in my hands in January.
