A nice light kit with only one lens in the pocket (doesn't bang into others) along with film. It's also good in that _any_ Leica lens can be put in it, even 21/SA's and such, as it's deep enough. I find the handling OK, and film changing isn't hampered, like with the two-lens Benser adapter. The only problem with it is is that it is strange looking enough that people come up to you to ask if you can 'shoot in both directions at once' and other such distracting notions. * Henning J.
