Subject: FW: [Leica] Komura 80/1.8 LTM

David,
I found the information, more comprehensive than my list.
Takehiko Kobayahi (the Kobayashi - Tom?) wrote an article on Komura ltm lenses for 'Viewfinder', issue Winter 1999.
My guess about the 100/1.8 was wrong, that was only made in SLR mount/s.
The 80/1.8 was made in LTM along with
28/3.5, 
35/3.5, 35/2.8, 36/1.8 (really, 36mm!)
80/3.5, 80/1.8, 
105/3.5, 105/2.8, 105/2.5, 105/2 (a very popular length, that)
135/3.5 (two versions), 135/2.8,
200/4.5 RF coupled
200/3.5 for Viso (Komura also made their own Viso equivalent)
300/5,
400/6.3,
500/7,
800/8.
and the 2x converter.

Hope this helps,
Jem

Hello,

 Has anyone on this list heard about the subject lens that is rangefinder
coupled?  I have never heard of this fast Komura lens.  As far as I know,
the only Komura LTM lens that is rangefinder coupled is the 200/4.5.  Am I
missing something here?

Regards,
David
