Come on B.D., at least get the facts right, it is adjustable focus, by
guestimation, and they do make a concession to modern lens coatings!!

It is a bargain -- $2500 for a non p&s mechanical Leica including lens and
leather case!  M6, Elmar and case are about $3500.  And, it will make your
kids stay at least 100 feet from you when you are carrying it around, out of
fear of embarassment of being seen with you!

Now let's see, if 2mm slit width = 1/500, then 5mm slit width = ???
