i suppose i implicitly subscribe to the credo of never having
enough 50's.

i count six within reach, but each with a different and mellifluous
names: summitar and summarit in LTM, summicron and noctilux in M, and
summilux in both M and R.  a most interesting part of this exercise
was hunting down the correct hoods for all of these things.

There's also a 65 elmar V lurking as a long, slow, and close normal.
