They feel somewhat less substantial than the Lieca counterparts as they are made of plastic and the lens hood is a joke. I like the Leica 35-70 better than the Angenieux lens but I like the Angenieux 70-210 better than the Leica/Minolta lens. I like two touch zooms. Everything aside, the Angenieux lenses are sharp. I got the 35-70 years ago from Jim Kuehl and the 70-210 from George Ury. Jim At 11:59 PM 12/17/96 -0700, you wrote: >I was told today that Angenieux made a 35-70 zoom for the Leica. Is this >true?
