I also like the 90 more looking at this post. Perhaps its background is a little darker? I did not adjust the exposures to match.Call me crazy, but I prefer the 90 AA over the 75 Lux in this match-up.

What makes this lens a "rigid"? I've seen this word used but I'm not familiar with this term.MP, Rigid 50 Summicron (1957), Arcos
iirc in the late '50s Leica had two 50 summicron models, one collapsible and the other not, hence "rigid."What makes this lens a "rigid"? I've seen this word used but I'm not familiar with this term.
In addition they had the 50mm Summicron that had a close focus ability with an attached set of goggles to correct the viewfinder view. It was called a dual range. In other words, rigid, meant it wasn't the close focusing or the collapsible version.iirc in the late '50s Leica had two 50 summicron models, one collapsible and the other not, hence "rigid."
Don't know if was intended this way, but #1, in addition to be a great shot (her smile, posture, imagined conversation with vendor), the juxtaposition with the magazine title in the glass, lower RHS, yellow cover is erie as hell.A few shots two I've posted before....

This lens just does it for me. If there is one lens that will never be sold so long as I own an M8 this is the one. Second place goes to the 28 Cron and third to the 50 Lux Pre-Asph.M8 75 lux

Thanks Woody, it is a wonderful lens and more or less manages away my noctilust. It is a bear to manage but delivers such wonderful results on my film Ms as well.This lens just does it for me.
