As our bodies get older, the Aren't Leica Rs set to minus one too? I think they're biased to near-sighted because the image in the viewfinder magnification wise (that is the focusing aids) appear to be about 1 meter or so away. So they bias it to seeing near things. Maybe I'm all wet. But I do believe Leica R cameras are biased the same as Japanese cameras. But at least the R8 has an adjustable diopter setting. ========== Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch Prejudiced people are all alike.
