gyoung Posted October 17, 2008 Share #22 Posted October 17, 2008 The original 50 2.8 is virtually identical in performance to the DR and Rigid Summicrons, just lacking 2.0. The recently discontinued one is a much more modern lens, very sharp without being harsh. You have the watch the old lenses as some are pretty dirty inside and scratched and they do not preform up to original standards. They are really nice if you find a good one. When I took my original type 2.8 to Malcolm Taylor for clean he told me that the lubricant used on the iris blades etches the inside of the front element in time, so always keep the lens at full aperture when not in use.
