[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I am in the market for a 180mm lens for my r6. I have decided on an APO lens because I will want to use the APO extender from Leitz later on. There are two lens for sale on Ebay. One is "for Leica R" Angenieux DEM 180mm 2.3 APO-R and the other is the well known LEICA 180/3.4 APO- R.-ROM. Does anyone have any experience with the Angenieux lens. I want to use this for wildlife photography and sharpness and contrast is important. All things being equal, I would opt for the faster lens because of the extender, but I don't really know if all things are equal in this comparison. Any help would be greatly appreciated. ____________________________ The Rev'd Charles E Cason Jr St. Peter's Episcopal Church (Ripon WI) 1805 Arlington Drive Oshkosh, WI 54904 (920) 231-8851 Mailto:cec@vbe.com
