This is Erwin from newsletter 47 of his APEMC newsletter. I have lost the 
original article unfortunately, but the gist of it was that he retested the 
Tri Elmar with new films and concluded that at 50mm and f4.0 it was better 
than the Summicron 50 at F4.0 which is the bench mark for 50mm lens 
performance in the Leica stable.

Cheers
Howard.
