Dear LUG,
        The recent discussion of what was the best 50 mm lens almost 
prompted to 
comment that  I thought that the 50 ASPH Summulux was the best and that 
since I bought it my 50 Summicron, 4th, has sat on the shelf.  This 
contented state was compromised when I wandered into a used camera shop and 
saw a screw mount collapsible Summicron.  If the truth is known, I have 
lusted for one for 50 years.  You can guess, I bought it.  The attached 
photo is one of the first trials.  It was on a IIIf.  It was shot in a 
hanger as you might guess.  So far I am delighted and my wife only said 
that's nice.

Lee
