Hi Tim,
I use the 80 mm 1.4 a lot, almost a perminant fitting to my R6; it makes
for a great viewfinder and is well suited to portraits in almost any light
(I don't use flash much).
Have you taken a look at the Leica site? Erwin Puts review might help you
decide which 80 - 100 mm is best for you (all seem to be well suited to certain
applications).
http://www.leica-camera.com/produkte/rsystem/objektive/index_e.html and click
on the 80 - 100 mm review.
I hope this helps
regards
Keith
