Mark,

You mean you don't want the summicron and the summilux as well !? Or you
have them already?

I used to wonder why Leica has four 50mm lenses. Now I want all of them.

A 50mm Noctilux weighs 630 g's
A 50mm Elmar weighs 170 g.
So that's 3 & 3/4's times heavier!
	just noticed that, same focal length, both take pictures.
		for what it's worth, which is not much,
I'd like both someday.
