Subject: [Leica] Zeiss Planar T and no beer

Thanks to everyone on the lug for their advice, I got the 50mm Zeiss Planar 
T f2 to replace my Serenar 50mm 1.8. I can?t post any photos with it until I 
find some luggers to go LeicaStacking in a dark pub, but I can say that Jim 
Shulman was correct in that the 1/3 stop clicks are annoying as sand in your 
margarita. Whose Idea was that?

I?ve also noticed that the official hood is $84 though $3 will get you any 
number of swank hoods that also fit on ebay.

Q: Does a square hood look cooler than a round one? And do vented hoods go 
faster?
