If you cannot locate this book, I would cheerfully scan the relevant pages for you. Up to about 80mm to 90mm or so, the Leica rangefinder is a much more accurate way of focusing a lens. A general discussion (but no comparison) can be found at: http://www.imx.nl/photosite/leica/leicahome.html Cheers John Collier > From: Javier Perez <summarex@yahoo.com> > > To make things worse, it has finally become apparent to most top users > that the RF accuracy is questionable with anything above 35 (Yes 35) > Seriously, I wonder how many M3s can focus a Noxtilux accurately @F1@8 > feet????
