After struggling to use that as my standard lens I bought a 50mm Summicron. At the time that _did_ feel like a telephoto :-) Steve - -----Original Message----- From: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us [mailto:owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us] On Behalf Of Ernest Nitka Sent: 20 July 2003 01:25 To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Subject: Re: [Leica] An Introduction, and a plea for wisdom no you're not the only one - they are all very different. I am starting to think of the 28 as being a standard lens with 35 being not enough and the 50 as a short tele - perverse I know. I used to think of myself as a 21-35-90 person and I now wonder if it should be 28-50 and NO 90. In the parallel SLR world I can hear the discussions of 180 not long enough, 400 too long maybe 300 is just right :) ernie - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
