Peterson Arthur G NSSC jotted down the following:

> By the way, does the viso eliminate infinity focus?

Not necessarily: it depends on which lenses you mount.  Most (all?) lenses
designed for the Visoflex retain infinity focus, although some M lenses
(most notably the 50mm Summicron) can be mounted on it too, but loose
infinity focus.

The best viso system is a 14167 mounted on an R7 ;)
