It is also a challenge to be able to expand the horizons of photographic possibilities. Using a pinhole lens is one of such challenges and does not denigrate the fine qualities of Leica lenses.<< >> Secondly, I do not share your disdain for Zeiss lenses. In fact I have the greatest respect for the Zeiss optics which I am using on my Rolleis and Hasselblad.<< I wonder if any on this list has a bit humor in them. A lighthearted comment about Miranda and Zeiss has one guy questioning my childhood and essentially calling me a pinhead, and now this. I have no disdain for Zeiss optics. I have a pair of Zeiss designs for my Contax, a Zeiss telescope, and binoculars. I did not understand the desire for a pinhole for your Leica and appreciate your excellent response & explanation. No telling what kind of response I'll get when the other Miranda lover here wakes up. Regards, Don
