Maybee i should restart here
I want a walk around lens for my R3
it should be less than 600 euros
I want the best possible 'Leica look' for the money. I do not mind having
another prime, but in this case maybe a zoom would be better. My options so
far (thanks to you guys) :
1. Angenieux 35-70 : not cheaper, not better than Leica zooms, just
different, bit kinky build (not my words ;-) )
2.Leica 35-70 f4 : within price range, very nice pictures, plenty available.
F4 ! (DOF, light needed) but zoom ! Picture quality comparable to the very
nice summicron pictures ...
3. summicron 50mm : faster and 'cheaper' No zoom off course.
At the moment i lean toward the leica 35-70 f4, because i already own very
nice nikon 35mm and 50mm 1.8 primes, but i do not own a zoom in that range.
Other thoughts ????
Is the version of these lenses important ? Do i need rom ? Is summilux much
better ? Would i be happy with the 35-70mm f3.5 ?
thank you, Axel
