Could you tell me the difference between the Viso II and IIA? Also, which currently available book best covers the Visoflex and its associated bits and pieces? =20 I bought a Viso II (I think...unless it's a IIA) a few months ago and use it with Elmarit 90/2.8 and Tele-Elmar 135/4.0 lens heads. I find the Viso well designed, well built, kind of elegant and not very quick to use. I think it's pretty cool to be able to actually frame and photograph looking through an M lens.
