Used to be a stuffy post every couple weeks - now it's come alive with fellow Leica enthusiasts from all over the world. Very cool! I use an M3 with my main lens being a 90mm Summicron, which takes incredible portraits at full aperture. Recently, I've become very interested in the screw mount lenses because of the classic "Eisensteadt feel" inherent in some of the earlier Leitz lenses, and because...let's face it...they're less expensive (;-). Am writing to inquire what screw mount lenses other fellow Leica users have found best in the 35mm, 50mm, and 135mm focal lengths? And to follow a current thread here - I'm 39, have published many photos, but consider myself "an amateur." Definitely not broke, but definitely not rich either; however, I'm happy because my refrigerator's full of film. Thanks for your input, Patrick Markham -------------------------------------------------------- -------- A wise man once said...."They're all actors.---------
