The only other option in the Leitz camp if you have a screw mount camera would be a screw mount Summilux if you can find one and are willing the ridiculous price. The summarit isn't a bad lens but it's prone to flare and gets blown away by both the Summilux and the old Zeiss Sonnar. One alternative might be the Nokton from Voigtlander http://www.cosina.com/nokton50.htm See Ya Javier - --- Mark Kronquist <mak@teleport.com> wrote: > on 4/25/02 5:12 AM, David C.
