And the age question obviously is not directly related to Leica or its use in photography. Having been on the Minolta group for a short time, I know such questions would not have had such a positive response, since I doubt most of them even know that Minolta and Leica ever sat down at the same table, let alone had a relationship. Most of them don't seem to remember that Minolta ever made cameras before the 9xi (or some such thing). As to the other issues, only the Shutterbug thread seems to be somewhat not related to Leica, however, it has been informative. Again, I am sorry I explored the topics I did. I will restrict my questions to whether the 90/4 Elmar-C or the 90/4 German Rokkor was better. Oh, ther I go again; I forgot the Rokkor was for the CLE. Brian Levy, J.D. Toronto, Ont. dlevy@worldy.com
