Subject: [Leica] M and R "standard" lens
From: "Dr James Harper" <DRJH@btinternet.com>

A recent message (I cannot now find it) said something on the lines that
the 35mm lens tended to be standard for an M camera, but it was the 50mm
for the R.

This was very interesting, if generally true.  Can anyone suggest why this
might be so?  Might it be because you can work closer with an M?

Regards.
