Henrik, you really should try the Tele-Elmarit-90 (thin version). As I said, it\'s small, light and I like the way it draws — and I don\'t think it\'s expensive these days.

As for the 135/3.4 APO Telyt, my feeling is that the the older Tele-Elmar 135/4.0 is superb and used to be known as being an \"APO\" lens all but name. Actually, my feeling is that the Tele-Elmar has better bokeh, which is important when shooting at full aperture. When I bought it, the used price was US$600 and and was a good deal compared to the current 135/4.3.
