[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I recently acquired an M6 with a 50mm lens. Does a filter placed on the lens degrade it's capabilities? I'm a working photographer and have always used a filter for protection. They have saved my senses in more than one occassion. I have also noticed "Wetzler" in some of the lens ads. How do these lenses differ from other Leica lenses? I'm going to have to complete the system with used lenses. Would someone kindly recommend a book which will tell me how to read the serial numbers to deturmine the age of the lens? Thanks, Jack
