I wish you would tell the LUG which "knowledgeable Leica dealer" this was, so we can make our own minds up whether or not to avoid him/her! HANDBOOK OF THE LEICA SYSTEM (9/95 edition), page 1-12: Adapter for the use of VISOFLEX 2/3 lenses from the LEICA M range on the LEICA R (at working aperture). I believe the last means that you lose any automatic metering and have to use stop-down metering. Marc msmall@roanoke.infi.net FAX: +540/343-7315 Cha robh bas fir gun ghras fir!
