Talking about the current models, they are identical. Previous ones, I'd say get the one you want. The qualitative difference can't be that big. The 90 Elmarit R is a great lens for closup work with the Elpro attachments, or bellows or extension rings. Something not so easy on the M camera. Which camera would you use it more on? Remember, the R probably gives you a bit better focusing accuracy than the M too. ========== Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch Hard work has a future payoff.
