It was used for the fruit stand, couple3, GirlOnPost, GirlSeine, StSulphice, GordonWindowParis, Pussy, and Model. I was very impressed with its results. I think I used the 90mm Elmarit-M only for the first Busker picture, the women with the accordion. The slide is very impressive. I will have to use that lens more often. I also brought along the 24mm, which was used for the Busker Band, crosswalk, and flare. The 75mm Summilux was used in the evenings in combination with the Noctilux. Streetshot was done with the 75mm. I cut off the feet by not using the 75mm frame lines properly. Other than it's smooth redition, the 75mm Summilux shots often have framing errors from not using the framelines for it. I don't think I used the 35mm Summicron ASPH much during the trip. The 50mm was a more useful focal length. I didn't use the 15mm at all. If you needed to travel light, a 35mm, 50mm, 90mm, and 135mm combo would do for most shooting in Paris. http://home.istar.ca/~robsteve/photography/Paris/index.htm Regards, Robert - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
