Hi Andrew
     I could not agree with you more! I spent the weekend evaluating a $40
1941 Summitar on a Leica IIIc. Each of these old lens have a different
pictorial feel from the new high contrast stuff. I also shoot N****, so you
really see the difference. I use FP4 with the old lens as I think it shows
up the soft shadows better. I also like TriX shot at 200 and developed in
HC110.  Regards Bill
