You're right: I _did_ neglect to mention specifically about the most important part, the glass. And aren't Ivor Matanle's books wonderful? When I found them, I thought, here, at long last, was someone who put to words what I never could. As for old glass, I think some of my favorite is found in the Tessars of my Automat 2 and Contaflex II. But alas, the latter is in need of a CLA (shutter's getting sticky) The Rollei is as beloved as the M3, but also less practical for a lot of what I do -- namely Doisneau-esque (OK I know he used virtually my same 'Flex) and Henri-esque people shots on the street, in cafes, etc. Ah but I ramble again... Happy fun, folks! Scott
