dear Mark,

Your "Alatavista" translation is pretty  good; a somewhat more valid translation
would be:

"Un objectif Cosina sur un boitier Leica est comme un bouton sur la fesse
gauche d'une belle fille..."

I am quite amused when an american is thrilled enough to look for a french version
of something;  it is rare to see a canadian anglophone in such a state.....

Pierre
