90 millimeters

I had Elmar 90 in LTM and collapsible. Both times from Bodo's shop...









Sold them with loss, nobody wanted them. One day, if I have money, I'll get 90 ELC lens.

I just got a 90mm elmarit v1. Above photo taken with it

I usually use a 90mm summicron v1 and it is a fantastic and sharp lens. Heavy though. I’ve used it for years and it has always been reliable. The aperture shape can sometimes make for weird highlights if you stop it down.

I love it as a 120mm on the M8 as well.

Hmmm, the CL and CLE's 90mm lens seems to be holding up well; it's one I use rather a lot but mostly because I've had the CL for decades, compared to the M2 and its contemporary 90mm Elmarit.

I have an 85/1.9 LTM Canon but I seldom use it. When I need a longer lens than the 50mm that's usually on whatever LTM Leica I'm using I most often use a 135/3.5 Canon. With the 1:1 SHOOC viewfinder and the 1.5 magnification of the rangefinder it works a treat.
