DON'T COPY THE WHOLE DIGEST WHEN YOU REPLY!!!!!!!! - -- Even Leicas have bad days. It took E. Leitz in New Jersey three tries to get my M-3 right on their last C and L. But, they did it. - -- THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH SMALL MINDED NATION BASHING -- Anyone know where I can buy a cheap (!) plus-1 diopter adjuster for my M-3. I had one and lost it. Do they make those things for R-3s as well? Glasses are a bitch. please advise by e-mail -- these lists have gotten rather long (not to mention redundant) and full of nation bashing and pointless arguments over whose lens is better, and hard to wade through. thanks, charlie trentelman ogden, utah summicron1@aol.com
