Don't be shy-share an URL or three >with us :-) Even if it's maybe not the most liked and most reliable Leica camera: If somebody likes underexposed slides from a 3-weeks-Leica-Mini3 experience in the United States, which looked so strange in print that I had to scan them, go this way please: http://gewi.kfunigraz.ac.at/~faber/photo/jambal/leica/index.htm I called that exposition "Leica Moments" long before I knew there was a competition of the same name. Sorry if this is a sacrilege. I just liked the expression for what the photographs told me. But I'm willing to change the title, if necessary! I'm preparing another Mini3 page, because I really got hooked on the images the lens is capable to produce. I was wondering anyway, what LUGers with "real" Leica cameras think about the optical quality of the mini3 lens? Is it worth the term "Leica"? I'm actually thinking about diving deeper into Leica-love by buying a used R-System (and becoming a little bit disloyal to my Nikon system) because of my Mini3 experiences. All kinds of encouragment are very welcome. BTW, a very nice list, I'm glad to have joined! wolfgang spekner - ---------------- Wolfgang Spekner Liebenauer Hauptstrasse 283a A-8041 Graz / Austria / E.U. http://gewi.kfunigraz.ac.at/~faber/
