I'd like to hear more from anyone with serious comparisons to make regarding
the 28 and 40mm Minolta CLE lenses.    I still have mine, as well as the
Leitz 40mm lens on a CL, and I never thought the 28mm lens was all that
contrasty.  I used to think the 90mm Leitz lenses for M cameras were the most
contrasty I ever owned.  I thought the CLE was a steal... a genuine bargain.
Lots of features, great size, compatable with Leitz lenses, etc.....    and
mine never game me a day of trouble.   
 
There is now this battery issue.... and what is the correct word on batteries
for the CLE.  Who sells them now???  Are they difficult to get.  The ones in
mine are still reading, but I should know how to find replacements when I
need them. 

thanks, Fred
