I did a quick search on the 90TE and seem to be getting a lot of hits that
it has lens element separation and fungus problems. Is the 90TE the 90/4?

And, FWIW, I have the T-E 90 and have used it, but not recently.  It  
has the advantage of being smaller and lighter, and I've gotten some  
good results with it.  It has an especially pleasing OOF look.  All  
in all, though, I prefer the Elmarit-M 90.
