[Leica] Wednesday Weeds

[Don Dory]

Ric,  I have been fortunate to find a Minolta 55 1.2 for $35 and a Nikon 55
f1.2 for $25 after selling the attached F2.  Most of my sites this summer
were with those or the Mitokyen 0.95 that was really cheap due to coating
marks.   That and finally breaking the"only 36 frames" mindset.
