Subject: [Leica] dropped 50 summicron
From: "Ferdinand U. LuDo" <fld@mozcom.com>

Hello Luggers,

I just want to ask whether a 50 summicron m dropped accidentally from about
a 1/2 foot height will make one of the  lens elements go out of alignment ?
The lens fell with its back cover on a towel covered refrigerator top since
I held it on the lens cap and the lens cap gave off ?

I noticed thou after the drop when I shook the lens there is some clicking
sound never heard before ? And such sound is not heard in my 35/2.0 asp and
90/2.0 summicron m.

Would this drop affect my sharpness and pix quality ? Would appreciate some
light on this ?

thanks and Happy New Year to All.

Ferdinand
