In a message dated 97-11-15 13:52:03 EST, you write:

<< I'm a little slow, evidently: Why would you need to lock up the mirror 
 if you use the R 4/21 SA on your R or SL? The R 4/21 is a retro-focus lens, 
 I never needed to do it. Different, of course, the M 3.4/21, because it's
 a symetrical lens (and definitely a jewel :)   ), and for which you'd need 
 the 22228. >>
The 21, 3.4 SA , which I was talking about, protruded deeply into the camera,
thus the need to lock up the mirror. Is that the issue or did I
misunderstand?
