Subject: RE: [Leica] summicron 50 dr + m6?

Frankly, if you already have a 50, for the same price than a 50 DR, I would buy
a Nikkormat with a Micro-Nikkor 55. The DR is a very good 50mm but it focus
(spelling?) farther than a SLR lens (even non macro) and using it on the short
range is not so great (I had one BTW).

All the best,
