If it's not long enough, they never should have made one for the "M"! I cannot remember if the 1.5 magnification is in the IIIa. - -----Original Message----- From: Frank Filippone [mailto:red735i@earthlink.net] Sent: Thursday, September 30, 1999 9:04 PM To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Subject: RE: [Leica] New LTM Lenses Frank Leica screwmount cameras are such exquisite little hockypucks I'm surprised you don't seem to like them! Just for the record, I have nothing against the LTM cameras. My preference is not for a separate VF/RF and I LIKE having multiple frames, but to each his own...In the "old days" I had a Contax 2A and 3A with which I tool some great travel shots.... but always wanted a Nikon RF for the different frame lines... and the Leica M3 was my DREAM camera.... Just a question: Is the RF of the 3C or 3F or 3A accurate enough for a 35 F1.4? Frank
