So you're saying having a compact camera is more important than the
ability to shoot in low light?

Ok - so from all the responses I have received I am thinking of selling
my 35 lux ASPH for the compactness of a 4th gen 35 summicron.  Stop f1.4
all that much, esp as I usually have my camrera loaded with 400 NPH or
TCN. The compactness of the late spherical model is just so atttactive..
