Hicks reviews the Voigtlander Bessa L in the 'First Look" section of the September issue of Shutterbug (pages 66 - 67) and says in part "the lenses (the 15mm Heliar and the 25 mm Skopar) astonished me.XXXXXX I think we are entering into a period of renaissance in rangefinder cameras which will benefit all manufacturers of such cameras - especially "Mother Leica" and I look forward to trying them all - while still keeping and adding to my Leica M inventory. ZZZZZZZZZZZZ G'day Howard, Very interesting comments. How much are the camera and lenes selling for in Hong Kong? There is a "complete" set for sale here in Melbourne, but I fear its a bit pricey, and I'm not sure that I need the "simple" camera back or the 25 at the moment, but some comparisons would be nice. After all, we are still hoping [if family illnesses are resolved] to get over your way in November. Cheers Alastair Firkin http://users.netconnect.com.au/~firkin/AGFhmpg.html
