Personally, if you get a IIIa like I did, the %cm/3,5 Elmar is more appropriate!- I just did some prints from the Elmar last night, and was pleasantly surprised at the contrast and sharpness. Granted- these were just 4x6 prints I made at work, but the Summitar and Elmar are seriously under rated... Which means you can get them kinda cheap! I can't comment on the Summar- haven't gotten one...yet! Enjoy! Dan dwpost@msn.com
