Restatement....
Comparison of the 18 Super Duper Elmar to the Wide Angle Tri Elmar @ 18mm.
Forget the finder, it has little to do with the optical photographic
path......!
I already know the WATE beats the 15mm Voigtlander and the 21mm ASPH Elmar
is better than the WATE. I have no evaluation for 18mm
BTW, the WATE finder has more than a little distortion........it is truly
lousy. Leica should be embarrassed......
No M8 here. Maybe a M9 when it happens......
