Hi guys, I'm interested in acquiring a 90mm Elmarit-M for the M10. I will be primarily shooting handheld. I was wondering if others had found that heavier chrome-brass versions of telephoto lenses helped reduce motion blur in their images, or did it have the opposite (or negligible) effect? Any insights into the use of telephoto lenses (not necessarily 90mm) would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I just bought the Leica 21mm f/2.8 Elmarit-M (1991 60mm filter version from Canada) through ebay and awaiting shipping. I was into buying this lens as new (Super Elmar f/3.4) but I got a very good deal on this one including the Leica view finder so I did not hesitate to buy. But I have problems to find any reviews of this lens. There are many reviews of the same ASPH but not w/o the ASPH. Does anyone own one like this or have tested one? What is your experience and is there something special to think about?

Hallo zusammen, ist es normal, dass beim Elmarit-M 28mm (Version III mit 49mm Filter) der Blendenring so locker ist, dass man ihn 5mm vor- und zurückziehen kann, so dass er sich ohne Rastung drehen lässt? Wenn der Blendenring normal vorne anliegt, lassen sich die Blenden mit Einrasten wählen. Wenn man den Blendenring zur Kamera hin nach hinten zieht, dreht er frei zwischen kleinster und größter Blende durch. Hier im Video sieht man es besser: Ich bin nicht sicher, ob das so muß. Hintergrund: ich hatte das Objektiv nur kurz, es war dann ein paar Wochen wegen eines anderen Schadens in der Werkstatt und eigentlich sollte es jetzt in Ordnung sein. Oder hat da jemand vielleicht vergessen, den Blendenring richtig festzuziehen? Hat jemand das Elmarit-M 28mm III? Wie ist es bei euch? Vielen Dank für eure Meinung, Chris

Hello. I was thinking about getting the Leica 28mm f/2.8 Elmarit-M ASPH as my first lens when I'm able to pick up an m8.2 camera. I've seen a handful of photos with this lens and an m8.2 on flickr and it impressed me. However, I've only found one comprehensive review online here: Leica 28mm f/2.8 Elmarit-M ASPH I would like to hear from you guys what you think of this lens. I'm just wanting 1 lens for now, or possibly forever depending on my budget. It seems to be a nice general purpose lens on 1.33x crop. I want to make sure I can take decent portraits with it as well. According to Ken Rockwell he was able to get it new for $1,800 plus a $300 rebate from Leica. How often do they do rebates? The current cost is $1999 and I would like to save a little money on one if possible. He also mentions that the lens hood is flawed because your able to see part of it in the viewfinder. Is there are better lens hood I could buy that doesn't have this problem? Or if you know of any other good reviews on this lens please let me know.

Took delivery of a new Elmarit-M 28mm ASPH this afternoon, so just had to run a quick test on my M9. Below is a local scene, taken at min focus distance, f8, 1/350sec, ISO 160. A quick grab shot during a gap in the traffic. The raw file has been run through LR3 with just the standard sharpening and a -15% vignette then exported as a 950pixel-wide .jpg. The second image is a 100% crop. To my eyes, very impressive resolution.
