Hi Mark,
I use the Leitz 50mm frightline finder all the time with the broken line
right below the top of the brightline. On the 50mm finder, is this for, like,
a meter or three feet or what? I'm looking seriously at the Voigtlander
21mm because it will rangefinder focus on my screwmount unlike
the Skoptar 24mm, though that has click-stop focus which might work
ok.
Cheers,
Rich Lahrson
