Thanks, Nathan. I like that lens a lot. I think old Leica lenses often get a 
bad name because a lot of them have haze in the glass that destroys contrast 
and resolution. I have the 90 Elmar, a 35mm f3.5 Summaron, and a 50mm f2.8 
Elmar; all screwmount. All have been professionally cleaned and they're all 
VERY sharp with great tonal rendering. The best part about the 90 was that 
someone gave it to me!
