[Leica] [OM] IMG: Eclipse Impact

[Nathan Wajsman]

Indeed, and as we both know, that pancake is an excellent performer. Tough, too—I dropped mine onto a stone floor in Gibraltar last year from a height of 2 meters or so, and besides a small nick on the rear mount, there is no damage and the lens functions perfectly.

Cheers,
Nathan
