The Elmarit is the higher resolution lens, however the Summicron makes absolutely gorgeous portraits wide open. I have had the 90 Summicron R's ever since they came out - my favorite "people" lens. It produces beautifully saturated slides with wonderful color differentiation in the shadow areas. In short they are both wonderful lens, but have somewhat different applications. Bob Figlio
