On topic ( like that really matters around here)..... The old Summilux is selling for around $800-1000, and if you like the look of the lens, it is a good buy. They were always over $1000 a few months ago...... The new ASPH ( John Collier has one ( or at least thinks he still has it, but really Leica has it) and feels it is a wonderful lens) is $2500, and I think you should take it out for a test drive beore you spend that kind of money for a 50mm lens. Frank Filippone red735i@earthlink.net used M7s, which are now selling for, what, around $2800, are only worth approximately 50% of their new priced once they've been driven off the lot.
