And you all said us techno-freaks were worthless, eh!?  Lots of folks make
an 85mm lens.  For Leica, buy a Russki 2/85 Jupiter-9 (used price less than
$100) and cheefully mount it on your Titanium Rooster
Oskar-Barnack-Bicentennial Limited Edition M6 with a Leitz 90mm
adapter-ring.  Works like a charm -- and it's a Zeiss lens!
