I bought this lens for my Leica R-E SLR about 3 1/2 years ago with intention of buying a 2x extender-r substituting 360mm. However, I have read other sites that this lens is not that great compared to 180mm 3.4 Teleyt-R & the 180mm APO Elmarit-R.
I have used Fujichrome Velvia 50 film, at times it looked Ok, other times not. It seems not to have that contrast oomph compared to my Leitz 3-cam Elmarit-R, 90mm,f2.8.
I have thought about maybe a Leitz 3-cam 250mm Telyt-R or Leica 2X APO extender-R to add to the present lens. What is your opinion, what shall I do.
