Isaac, 35/2 + 75/1,4 + 135/4 or 28/2,8 or 35/2 + 50/1,4 + 90/2 or 2,8 seem more logical to me. IMHO 50/1,4 and 75/1,4 are to close, specially in the M6 viewfinder. Confusing if you use both at the same time. >What would I be giving up (other than the meter) >if I got an M3 instead of an M6HM? - -35 and 75mm finders - -ease of load - -connection to Rapidwinder or motor winder - -on some M3s, double stroke winding instead of single and no preview lever. but, you will gain - -higher magnification of the viewfinder - -choice between chrome and black body (illusory) - -no red dot ;-) Lucien
