Had dinner with Tom and Tuulikki A. just two days after Joseph and Adrian left Vancouver. It is a small Leica world. Have used the 35mm summicron Asph ltm around the world on my Bessa and enjoyed it very much. Will get all the photos developed tomorrow. Stopped in London for one day to see my middle daughter dance in Sleeping Beauty at Royal Albert Hall - snuck in the Bessa and the 75mm 2.5, but even with ASA400 film, there wasn't enough light through the theatre fog and green scrims to take a decent available light photo wide open at 1/8 to 1/4. Too bad - I really needed the 75 Summilux and ASA 1600 film!! The viewfinder on my Bessa has come out of alignment a bit. I was prepared to live with it but I looked through the viewfinder on Tom's Bessa R and it is exactly in registration at infinity and I would like to adjust mine to be the same. That is something I need to research. Rangefinder registration is one of my fixations you may recall! It is lovely to be back in Hong Kong where I hope there will shortly be another LUG dinner before holidays start. Cheers Howard.
