As wonderful as it is, I would urge you to try a Leica 135mm lens before making your investment. None of them are small and they really can be difficult to frame; 135mm is truly the outer fringe of 35mm rangefinder compatibility. If you are looking for a portrait lens, you should reconsider that other relative bargain, the "Skinny" Tele-Elmarit M. That said, it's hard to go wrong with the 135mm f/4.0 selling for around three hundred bucks!

Yes, that's what has attracted me. As I mentioned in the other post, I'm hearing, and reading, really good things about this lens.
