Hello Leica users,

I saw Leitz enlarger lens Elmar 1:3.5/50mm at a certain camera shop today.
At a glance, it looked like Focotar 1:4.5/50mm; it was impossible for me to
differ between them without lens name engraved on the front rings.

What kind of lens the Elmar is?
I would like to know the composition of lens element, the enlarging
performance compared with Focotar 1:4.5/50mm.

Any information is greatly appreciated.
