I've now had a chance to try out my 'new' 50 year old 85/1.5 Summarex LTM after its overhaul by Leica wizard, Malcolm Taylor, in the UK. He's done a marvellous job. You can see the story and a few shots via: http://www.iol.ie/~corkflor/ Comments welcome. This is a lens I'll be using often. My next task is to 'load for bear' with Fuji 800 and see how it stacks up against the Nocti wide-open in available darkness. For this I'll probably use it with a 90mm adapter on my M3, as I suspect the IIIf's short rangefinder base won't quite be up to it. Best Alex -- Alex Hurst Waterfall Nr.
