That add up to be 2 Leica MP's each with their own Noctilux's and a suitcase filled with film. (Or diaper bag, your choice) Nikon's wide zoom is the 17-35mm f/2.8 D ED-IF AF-S lens and is said to blow Canon's right out of the water. I'm getting one this week. There is talk of a 2/3's format for film. As lenses will be made to fit this size why not take advantage of it for the stupid people who would ever want to shoot real film again. Flim. Analog people. That's all the real estate I need! Mark Rabiner Portland, Oregon USA http://www.rabinergroup.com - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
