Subject: [Leica] Handled a Biogon Ultra-Wide!

The local shop Keeble & Shucat does not have a SWC to rent (neither does
anyone online), but that's a well-used Ultra Wide in the used dept so I
played with it a little. Didn't actually shoot any film though.

The handling is nice. Since this is the original model, the viewfinder is
pretty lousy. Overall, it does feel it would be nice to carry and use.

Not sure if anyone actually BUYS the new 905 SWC for $10K+, but this is
certainly the lowest priced Biogon I have seen.
