Tom -- I'd sure be interested to know, and maybe others would too, whether you've come up with a way of tabbing the Voigtlander 75/2.5, which is a wonderful lens, but definitely needs a tab IMHO. -- John Brownlow >> John, I have not had a chance to install a lever or tab on the 75/2,5 yet. Most of the time it is on the Bessa-R and that body is smaller than the M so the need is not that obvious. I suspect that a tab or grip from an early 35/2 Summicron would fit and actually look quite sleek on it. Otherwise it would have to be the old stereo back retaining screw and a hole drilled in the barrel style tab. See you Wednesday in Pied Bull Yard. All the best, Tom A
