Hi John,

     And thanks, I checked the site above;  the screw mount Leicas are
just slightly less than an M3, slightly more than the M2.

     What does Steve Gandy mean by 'later models (than M3 or M2) have
depth of field scales visible in viewfinder?  I've used M3, M2 and 
an M4-2; there's no scales in the finder.
