I' thinking of getting one or the other of the above lenses.  I am
interested in their comparable optical qualities.  Resolution and contrast.
I know that the 90 is a later lens than the 75 (1989 v. 1980, I think). I
have a 35/2.0.  If I get the 90 I will probably get a 50/f2.0, if the 75 -
not the 50.  Weight is about the same for the 50 and 90 or the 75.

I am aware of the difference in aperature.  thanks
