And are any a bargain, like my DR Summicron? Doug; If you aren't sure you'll care for that frame line, why not try it out with a Jupiter 9 and an adapter first? A lot easier on the wallet if you find that it's not a focal length that you care for and a good example of a 85/2 Jupiter 9 isn't really a bad lens at all. Just a thought. (Or were you talking specifically about the Leica 90s themselves and not the Focal Length overall?) BTW...I greatly enjoyed "Attendant" and your edgy yet clean site design is humorous and refreshing.
