Jim,

I have remembered in the last minute of the site of Douglas Herr, there is a description of the different version of the lens.

For the Grand Prix, I was seated quite far in the "tribunes", in front of the stands. I decided to take pictures in the public.
But, too many teenager eyes shining with cannabis, saliva dripping from the lips...


Teenager were admitted free and they obviously did not came for the race...

Cheers.

Xavier:

Can't speak to the lenses, I too have the Canadian 90mm-R and I also misunderstand the law of supply and demand as it applies to Leica stuff.

BUT! I'm looking forward to seeing your Grand Prix shots... don't let us down! :-)

Hi there,


I strolled around Paris, starting with the Boulevard de la Photo. In a shop, they offered the "new" version of the summicron and an older version (the one built in Canada, Ontario).

I have a Canadian Version and it delivers very good results, I was wondering if the newer mechanical construction had an enhanced set of optcs.

Any inputs?

Both versions were of equivalent prices. The shop owner was saying it was hard to sale these days (question, why prices are so high then, I misunderstood the law of supply and demand ?...)

Tomorrow, I'll go to the grand Prix Moto France, in le Mans, R7+35 and 90mm, B&W agfa film, we'll see.

Cheers.
