Thanks, Philippe.? You asked about the Leica 60 Macro the other day.? I 
tried it for a couple of days, but, with my eyes getting older and my 
limbs getting shakier, my keeper percentage was just too low.? The Oly 
50/2.0 Macro with AF is very good for an old guy like me.? It even lets 
me touch up the focus!
