Wulff ><snip> Last year a friend of mine who had lots of "gear" was showing some envoy at one moment about my growing Leica M system. I cheered him up by telling him that having a (Hasselblad)Superwide was all the Leica he needed. For me there is still some truth to that statement. I'm going to have to somehow make sure I don't turn 50 without owning and using at least a real old one. This same friends Superwide is a real old one with non T* coating but he feels he makes up for this by putting a new expensive Hasselblad UV filter over it. The extreme folly of his ways I am not able to convey to him! Mark Rabiner
