Alex,
      I've used just a 50mm Summicron and a 90 mm Summicron since dirt was 
invented. Recently, however, I sold the 90 mm 'cron and bought a 90 mm 
Voigtlander Apo Lanther, which is much smaller and lighter than the 
Summicron.. What's more, it's a very sharp lens.
      Wasn't it Emerson who wrote, "Simplify, simplify, simplify"? Or was it 
Thoreau?
  Regards,
  Hank
