Arf! :-) Buzz wanted me to inform you that he will not be joining you for the next 30 days as he has entered a special Tele Elmarit rehab program and will not have access to the internet. :-) Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry -----Original Message----- From: Buzz Hausner <buzz.hausner@verizon.net> Date: Wed, 23 Jan 2008 06:12:27 To:Leica Users Group <lug@leica-users.org> Subject: Re: [Leica] The Tele Elmarit 135 Is So A Real Pooch of a Lens Upon reflection I have decided that you guys are actually right. The 135 f/2.8 was the finest lens ever marketed by Leica and it sets the standard for all rangefinder lenses. Based on your comments, I have come to the conclusion that the 135 Tele Elmarit...with eyes...represents the pinnacle of optical design achievement and EVERYNE should rush out and buy one. Right now. There, is that better?
