If so, I presume it would be the same for the M5. Go take a look on his site, under PROFILE, Cosina Heliar chapter. If you can't find his site, go visit my own web site. I have Cameraquest as a link on my Link page. My URL is www.jlda-design.com Sincerement, Jacques Leonard =============== j.leonarddesigner@videotron.ca
