[Leica] My 85-year-old mother is in love with this guy

[Bill at photobynelsch.com (Bill )]

I don't want to say "me too" but I am having the same back focus problem 
with my 75 'lux.  The lens is currently getting the coding
and I then will send in the M8 for upgrade and then I will send the pair in 
for adjustment.  I just hate to have the M8 out of my
hands and have been delaying, as long as possible, sending it in.

Ps I really like my portrait but, geeze, I didn't think I looked _that_ old! 
;)  must be a problem with the white balance on the
tri-x. ;)

I've had some focusing issues with my 75 'Lux as well. I don't know if it is 
the lens or me. My local camera repair guy is an older
geezer who looks like Jack Warden. I don't think he is set up for lens 
calibration. Who does that sort of work other than Solms?

I'm using the 28 cron asph, 35 lux asph, and 75 lux on my M8. The 28 and 35 
focus dead on the money. However, I'm having back focus
issues (I think I'm using the term correctly - the lens focuses a few mm 
behind where I intend) with the 75. That which is sharp is
very sharp
- however, achieving intended focus has been a frustration. I'm trying to 
teach myself to correct for issue - as I don't want to
send the lens out for calibration.
