[Leica] R3 owners.... AT

[rsphotoimages at comcast.net (Bob Shaw)]

Not entirely sorry to say I sold R8, R9, 28/90 and 70/180.  Best cameras and 
glass ever.  Very useful lenses.  28/90 was my go-to lens.

But in the Leica User's Reality Show, I'm yet another White Hair who lost 
the ability to quick focus a grab shot.

Now using 5D Mk ll with 24/105 and 70/200 + 2x Doubler for the 70/200.

Gotta say I'm pretty much covered and shoot way-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y more now.

Would have done just about anything to keep the R glass and invest 
(literally, I"m sure) in an autofocus R10.

Shot some HD Video with the 5D Mk ll other day.  Amazing.

Regards to all

Bob in Seattle 

(37F and Sunny, 26F last night?.but then, 19F in Phoenix area last night.  
Go figure.)
