No, I'm not ignoring the pictures in favour of equipment, I haven't got
a web browswer yet. But I will have in about a week, and I look forward
to looking at them.

But I'm interested in the Alpa lens idea. Did you use Alpas before, or
did you get these lenses with the idea of converting them? And which
lenses are are they? And more to the point, how do they compare
optically with Leica lenses?
