Focusing was a challenge when the light was 1.4 at 1/4 second, but in hand-holdable situations, the Summlux was fine to focus. So the Summicron shouldn't be too much harder, maybe easier. The R8's viewfinder is much brighter than my R4s of the time were. - -- Eric Welch Carlsbad, CA http://www.neteze.com/ewelch Zen master to hotdog vendor. "Make me one with everything."
