Focal length has a lot to do with the accuracy of focusing with a rangefinder. The longer the focal length, the less "width" the focusing base has. Read Gunter Osterloh's book "Leica M" for a decent explanation. The wider, the more accurate an M6 is. The longer (from 90+) the more accurate an SLR is. ========== Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch Maintenance-free: When it breaks, it can't be fixed
