Thanks for that. Amazingly that had not yet occurred to me!



Hi Joe!
Haven't used the Elmarit, but the 90 Summicron (1st ver) is lousy on tubes or bellows, as stated by Doug. It is also lousy on a 2x extender! OTOH, it has lovely bokeh and is FAST! Not sure if I could part with mine, despite it's faults. 

Cheers!
