[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I have both a Macro Elmart 60mm f2.8 mid 1990s vintage and a similar (late 1980s) vintage manual focus 55mm f2.8 Micro Nikkor. Both purchased new. Having shot a ton with both lenses on R6 (and FM2n) bodies under similar situations, I would say both are superb lenses with the Leica lens being slightly better at handling odd lighting situations. The construction of the Leica lens is where I notice the difference. The Nikon lens is well made. the Leica lens is indestructible.
