I'm trying to decide between the Elmarit and the Summicron. The extra f-stop on the Summicron is tempting, but my impression is that the Elmarit is generally regarded as a "better" lens. Is that really the consensus? I'll have to think about the advantage to me of an extra f-stop and how much I care about the weight difference (and the $ difference). In the mean time, does anyone have any advice or comments on these lenses? I would appreciate any information, impressions, general ranting . . . anything.
