Subject: [Leica] 90 Tele-elmarit vs. Current Elmarit?
From: "Richard J. Wyble" <rwyble@erols.com>

After the glowing praises of the 90-M Elmarit sung here in recent days
(in the 90 ASPH Summicron thread), I am given pause to wonder about
performance differences between that Elmarit and my late-80's
Tele-Elmarit.

I prize the petite profile and svelte weight of the tele-elmarit but if
there would be significant differences in my photography as a result of
using the current 90 Elmarit, I'd be willing to use the slightly larger
and heavier lens.

Any (informed) comparative observations regarding these two lenses?
