I even forgot to put the viewfinder magnifier on. This was at 6 feet and as
you can see the focus worked out fine. 
It's way cool to be able to read Tina's post, shoot a couple of frames, get
them into my PC, upload one and now you've seen it about 20 mins after I
shot it. Incidentally this is the new Adobe Standard profile. And how good
is that old lens!! 


Cheers

that works out well Geoff...

I like to fill the entire viewfinder with my shot so I like very wides on
the M8....like 21mm or 24mm....

must be quite different to capture what is likely at best ~5%   of the  
viewfinder....

always a surprise, no  ?

I don't have an M 135mm, but sometime I will borrow one and try it,
