I am pretty satisfied wih my small invention: I took a M lens cap, and drilled a hole in the bottom large enough for the protruding elements of the SA. Then, I glued a Nikon lens cap on top of it. Then I glued another M lens cap back to back on the Nikon cap. Some electrical tape around the assembly made it nice to handle. So, now I can carry the SA and 90 mm lens attached back to back in a compact and secure way. It is also much easier to change lenses: In the bag, turn the 21/90 so that the the desired lens gets on top. Then switch lenses without fiddling with loose lens caps. The Alice takes 2 M6:s with attached 35 and 50 mm Summicrons, plus the 21-90 combo. One M-body has the additional 21 mm finder. Well, that is all I need! Regards, Hans
