If it's any consolation, only five 50 ASPH's have come into North America since the Christmas holidays in Germany. A friend of mine just got one of the other four. These things must be hard to make! <http://www.leica-camera.com/discus_e/messages/11/111853.html?1108087277> Best Regards, William At 06:23 PM 02/10/2005 -0700, you wrote: >For many years I have not use the shade on my 35/1.4A.
