Subject: [Leica] R Mid-Range Zooms

Just to get off the D700 thread, I'd like the LUG's opinions of the
28-70 and 35-70 R zooms. Are they just rebadged Minolta lenses that
are built better? Opinions for or against would be appreciated. I'm
looking for a good zoom for my new Sony A900, and would be willing to
use R glass with an adapter if it's worth the trouble, or should I
just stick with Minolta/Sony/Zeiss glass?
