This morning I had 200+ separate emails! I subscribe to the Alfa Digest (the other great passion of my life, after my family) and it's nice to get one email instead of 200! 2. My M3 is also exhibiting "white streaks" across the top of prints on a somewhat random, but increasing frequency. At first, it occurred most often with my 90mm Elmarit, but now I'm seeing it with all my lenses, which leads me to believe it's not the lenses, but something in the camera itself. Does anybody have any recommenedations in the Atlanta, GA area, first, and failing that, how 'bout just generally? I can highly recommend John Van Stelton of Focal Point Camera in Colorado for lens work, for I had him CLA my 90mm and replace the iris blades, and CLA my 35mm Summincron w/"eyes". He did nice work and a reasonable price. 3. Is there a way to use a lens longer than 135mm on an M3, preferably w/o a visoflex? My kids play soccer and 135 is just not long enough to cover the action on the other side of the pitch. I recall that Komura(?) once made a 200mm in the screw mount, and that with a M adapter and a Tewe finder might be a possbility, although 200 is a bit long (180mm would be about the best). Other than a SLR, does anybody have any suggestions? Thanx! ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: Re: Missing/ old Leica-Users List Digests Author: Dan Cardish <dcardish@microtec.net> at INTERNET Date: 9/1/97 10:18 AM At 04:44 AM 01-09-97 -0400, you wrote: >How/ where do I get the old digests, please ? > >Alf Issue either of the following commands to Majordomo@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us get [<list>] <filename> Get a file related to <list>. index [<list>] Return an index of files you can "get" for <list>. where <list> is leica-users Dan C.
