RE: [Leica] tele-elmarit 90

Where would you use it?  Anywhere you want the smallest, most discrete kit
you could carry!  Anywhere you want to mount a REAL lens shade, the
formidable 12575.  Anywhere you are more likely to take pictures through a
$400 investment than a...what?...investment of two grand.  Do you have
heirs?  I have two, they can each fight over the nineties (and thirty-fives)
and both win.

It is no dog!   I've always liked it, no complaints, except maybe for a
slight propensity for flaring, already noted here..  But I got suckered (by
me :( ) into buying the new APO 90, and the old TE has become redundant,
infortunately.  I just can't see where I would use it instead of the newer
lens.
