Subject: 135 Elmar vs. Tele-Elmar vs. Elamarit?

The discussion of the 135's has been interesting, but how would some of
you compare them to the 2.8 Elmarit? (both versions)  I have this lens,
and like it for the magnification the eyes give to the viewfinder.  This
is especially good on an M3 (or an M6-Tele;) ).  I do think it is kind
of big and heavy, but it's easier to hold steady than the lighter
lenses.  Has anyone compared them optically at medium apertures?

Thanks,

Colin
