Are there pros and cons like black vs. chrome or some years better than others with this lens? I seem to remember posts about people still using these older lenses w/ adapters but don't recall the specifics. I just can't spend 500.00+ for a lens that I will use very infrequently. I never really liked my skinny (mid 80's) 90/2.8 Tele-Elmarit I had years ago but if I can get close to its performance for around 250.00 I might go for that. BTW, are hoods still available for these lenses? If you have/use one of these screwmount 90/4 Elmars, please let me know how you like it. Thanks Mark
