I can't imagine using a lens longer than 75mm with the M6 viewfinder. It's just not a big enough area to work with--composition would have to suffer. I use only 50 and 35 mm lenses, so I mustly use the M6, but the M3 is great in low light with a 50mm lens. Joe Stephenson [cut]> >At 03:52 PM 11/21/98 -0500, you wrote: >>Hello everyone!
