[Leica] 1600 Leica R Lens (and four-wheel-drive Mercedes)

[henningw at archiphoto.com (Henning Wulff)]

But PopPhoto did get the speed wrong. It's not f/5.6; it's an f/4 lens. I 
got a look at it last time I was in Solms. Just think, if the M10 is the R 
solution, you can now put that lens that's been sitting in the closet out 
and go shooting with it. Probably should put the strap on the lens, not the 
camera (and tie the strap to four or six strong shoulder harnesses so your 
servants can carry it for you). Maybe commission a Gitzo wheelbarrow.
