Wondering if you've had an opportunity to try your M lens collection on a digital M body. A friend here in Milwaukee rented an M body just to see if it may be for him. My experience with my M8, M, and M Monchrom are very similar to others who've needed to have lenses and or bodies adjusted to get them more precisely in line with specifications. My 35 lux Asph front focuses horribly. My 75 lux has similar problems. Neither of those lenses exhibited problems on my 3 M6 film bodies. While my 50 lux Asph and 28 cron Asph both focus dead accurate on all three digital M bodies That's my experience with four lenses on 3 film different film bodies and 3 different digital M bodies. I certainly appreciate your very extensive "qualifications" and opinions, most especially on the equipment and processes you've used over the decades. a note off the iPad, George On Apr 4, 2015, at 3:11 PM, Mark Rabiner <mark at rabinergroup.com> wrote: > Here a fact I can report on George.
