In fact I'm not a great user of the 28, I use much more the 35 and the 21, I use only the 28 on the Tri Elmar, and maybe this is the reason why I do a few use, the Tri Elmar is big and has a slow speed F4. Anyway for my style the 28 is in between the 21 and 35 and I can leave at home the 21, but no the 35. Thanks for your opinion Saludos cordiales Luis -----Mensaje original----- De: lug-bounces+luisripoll=telefonica.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+luisripoll=telefonica.net@leica-users.org] En nombre de Leonard Taupier Enviado el: s?bado, 19 de enero de 2008 19:38 Para: Leica Users Group Asunto: Re: [Leica] Experiences Elmarit ASPH 28 vs IV generation E-46? Hi Luis, I only have the last, pre-asph Elmarit. It is an extremely fine lens and gives beautiful images at any aperture. But I suspect the new asph lens is fine as well. It is doubtful you will see any difference to the older lens unless you take photos of lens charts. It sounds to me you would like the newer lens for it's smaller filter size and compactness. I would not worry about buying either one.
