Hi, the Dom in Worms/D (Leica M9 - Elmarit 2,8/24 asph. f 8) :
There are several reviews of the Elmarit 2,8/24 asph. some comparing it to the Elmar 3,8/24 asph, all seing both as identical in performance in everyday use,
the Elmarit being faster, of course.
For me, the Elmarit is more practical in situations like the one above. In some German cathedrals, amateurs are not allowed to use tripods, or even monopods.
And then, the Elmarit can rest level on the shade (if you find a suitable surface).
My lens-shade for the ZEISS Biogon 2,8/25 does not do this. It is also for the 4,5/21. So I ordered a ZEISS lens-shade that also fits the 2,8/28 to see if this is better...
