That\'s also what I find odd. The Summilux is already head and shoulders above similar focal length and speed lenses that it would be really hard to differentiate the Summicron (especially at the asking price). I\'d really like to see samples that leverage whatever abilities the new Summicron has over the Summilux if its just about pure optical ability.
Interesting info on the development of the 50AA Summilux and the APO designation too, thanks for that.
