Wow! So there really are Leica photographers.
Just remember to have your lens powder it's nose and brush it's hair before
you have it pose for you. ;-)

Seriously though - :-) - doesn't it make a whole lot more sense to go to
your nearest camera store, mount a 75 on your favorite M body, heft it, play
with it, focus it, and get a feel for it, rather than worry about what it
looks like on your computer monitor?

Hi Sam,

I have just uploaded some photos.  Just go to
http://www.geocities.com/kl_cheung_k/75.html?1016728226320 . There are three
pictures.  The top one is the lens focusing at finity with hood retracted.
The second shows how the lens looks like while focusing at the closest
distance with hood fully extended and the bottom one shows the 75mm and the
tele elmar, just for a direct comparision.  The lens may look big but it
balances better than the tele elmar.
