Now Andrew lad it's still a waste of time doing the testing simply because if you were to open the archives of the LUG you could be reading every possible result of testing possible on any Leica lens. yep and at no cost! :-) And yes done by members who're reading your notes and mine as we talk. Not to mention the testing results by Mr. Erwin Puts. Whom I'm sure you are aware of from your lengthy time reading the LUG and the archives. However, why not ask me directly about the lens or lenses in question? As I'm young at heart, fun lovin' and a Leica shooter user of many years (40 plus) and still working them hard! At my age and with the years of experience it's one of my moral obligations in life to give back to photography what photography has given me.... experience for others to learn from! >>>>> "This is why many of us young photographers are here, to learn from the advice of the more experienced seasoned ones." <<<<< So now lad ask yer question directly offline or on and I'll endevour to answer your questions. However, be a good lad then and have a go at the archives first and you'll find an answer for almost every Leica question you can think of. Oh and one last thing, save your money and stop wasting film for testing and have fun taking real pictures. ;-) ted Ted Grant Photography Limited www.islandnet.com/~tedgrant - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
