My eyesight is pretty good and I don't get many missed focus shots wide open on my 50mm Summicron. - -----Original Message----- From: Darrell Jennings [mailto:darrell_jennings@yahoo.com] Sent: 08 August 2002 16:19 To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Subject: Re: [Leica] Viewfinder for 75 summilux and 28 summicron-M I think you would find the .58 hard to focus on the 75mm which seems to be one of the toughest lenses to focus at wide aperture due to the shallow depth of field. I have a .58 and don't use it with my Noctilux for that reason (in fact will ultimately get an .85 for it and the 90). - --- E E <etaman@hotmail.com> wrote: > Hello folks, > > Would a 0.58 magnification viewfinder on M6/7 be > convenient to use the > combination of 75 f/1.4 and 28 f/2 lenses?
