Richard,

The S-Planar 120/5.6 is a macro lens. If that's not what you want, the Sonnar 150/4 is the lens you want. Its the same as the Hasselblad lens, a perfect portrait lens.

I've just rounded-out my collection 50-80-150 with a 250 Sonnar. Do you like yours? Mine needed a good cleaning and repainting of the black flocking paint, which had come off the front cell and gotten all over the optics and into the diaphragm. I didn't think it was separation in the ebay ad, and my bet paid off well for the price.

I have the 50 Distagon, 80 Planar and 250 Sonnar for my SL66. Looking to add a short-tele for portrait work. The typical and common one seems to be the 150 Sonnar. I also see the 120 S-Planar out there (not the macro one). Anyone have suggestions or comments about either? I also see there's a 150 with leaf shutter. Other than the leaf shutter anyone know if the glass performance is better or worse than the non-leaf shutter 150?
Lastly, anyone have any of those they want to sell?
Thanks,
