I know it is heavy, but after I got it, I sold my Tele Elmarit 90mm, just as I sold my Summicron 50mm after I purchased the Fuji 56mm f1.2. My feeling is that native lenses that autofocus and are roughly as good as non native ones result in many more keepers for those with aging eyes, with no loss of observable quality on a print.
