Good luck with that, I don't see my guessing, when the shutter will fire, getting any better after almost half a year.
I'm very happy that my subjects don't move much, at most I have to time cloud edge passing between sun and my subject. Also the $1.99 wireless remote control from eBay has much better button than the one in camera...

I was quite disappointed to Leica Summicron-R 50mm f/2 E55 when compared to 90mm and 180mm Elmarits. Disappointment came from the rough boke the Summicron-R has. Any idea if Elmarit-R 35mm would have smooth boke like 90mm and 180mm Elmarits, while still being sharp where focused? Would like to extend my Leica lens family to 3 usable lens, and as I see 50mm Summicron-R isn't usable in my use due to boke.
(Ideally I would like to have latest Elmarit-R 28mm to combine with my 90 and 180, but it's way to expensive)

Samuli,
Sorry the 50mm R Summicron lens Boke doesn't meet your needs. Mine is extremely sharp, but I am using my Minolta CLE MC 40mm f2.Summicron much more often than the Summicron due to its tiny size and light weight (and it is also quite sharp).
I haven't checked the Boke that carefully for my 60mm f2.8 Macro Elmarit lens, but it is also extremely sharp and may provide you with Boke that you might like. Also the lens would double up as a macro lens for you as well (but it is bigger, heavier, and longer than the Summicron). I am not using mine nearly as often as I once did since I have found that the 100mm f2.8 Apo Macro Elmarit is an even better performer.
