As my title says, I just picked up a used SL with the 24-90 zoom lens.
Really liking it so far.
I now want to add some primes to my kit so when I don't want to use the zoom.
I purchased the Leica M-T adaptor though I am also considering getting the just released R-L adaptor also.
So comes lens choice.
I want to get a 28 and 50 to start with.
Looking at the newer 28 Elmarit which Sean Reid tested and seems to be a strong performer on the SL and maybe also a 50 Summicron or even the newer 50mm Summarit. I don't have the funds to get a Summilux.
I have read that smaller M lenses don't handle so well on the SL, though I have never tried to use one before.
I sold off all my M stuff when I purchased into the S system.
I am also considering the 80-200/4 R lens. I did get a chance to handle the SL 90-280 zoom, wow what a lens but it HUGE!!
Any thoughts?
