Will, Dan & Dick,

Thanks to all of you for the information. 
Reading your mails again, I have two more questions:

1) Do I understand your words correct, that the 75/Summilux and 90/Summicron
are equal in sharpness between f2 and f4, and that the current 90/Elamrit is
better than both at f2.8 and f4 (and higher apertures)?

2) Is the 75/Summilux a "warm" or "cold" lens?
