Everything I've heard from other users is that the latest Elmarit-M/2.8 is 
fantastic (unless you need a faster lens) and the Summicron 90/2 is not one of 
Leica's better lenses.  I don't have either (I have an older 90/2.8 Tele-
Elmarit) so this is heresay and hopefully some users will jump in.  Best, Alan
