John, You make a good point. Perhaps, with rigorous weight training and a diet consisting of hearty breakfasts (breakfasts are cheap) and a protein supplement, a man could forego lunch and dinner, save money, still be able to lift a Noctilux. Or, he might drop dead from the exertion. Should that be the case, I will accept the burden (the lens, that is). Chris (Leica Bequests R Us) Lawson
