I like the size, the lens hood, the weight, and the sharpness of its pictures. Before getting an M6, I used an SLR and grew to enjoy the zoom/telephoto lenses but my desire to have an M6 was greater than keeping the old SLR. After spending a great deal of time using the 90mm, I find myself thinking about a 135mm. I switch framelines from time to time just to see what the 135 framing of a potential shot would be and quite frankly, I like what I see. I like taking pictures of people or events from a distance but not enought to get another SLR for lenses beyond 135. What's the general thinking on the 135 focal length for the M line and/or the 135 3.4 Telyt? Have many luggers out there used it and I'm wondering what your thoughts are on the lens. Currently, I have a 35mm Summicron ASPH, 50mm Summilux, and the 90. Robert Clark Lancaster, PA - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
