For the very first time in my memory, Mike, I must agree with you. > Magnificent lenses on a mediocre body. It is a shame that Zeiss didn't > have the brains to produce these in Leica M mount. I would have bought the > lot of them! Marc, Yes, we hardly ever agree, but here we are even thinking alike--because I made a similar comment in my post to you and then deleted it, thinking, no, the Luggers will crawl all over me if I say something like that!! - --Mike P.S. We really do have to stop agreeing like this. People will think we're both going soft. P.P.S. Also the Tessar in my old Contessa is a simply gorgeous lens. The camera is a beautifully-built kludge, but the lens is sharper'n'you-know-what. P.P.P.S. And another true connoisseur's lens is the Zeiss 110mm f/2 for the Hasselblad. That might be one of those "ultimate lenses"--the ones that make you think lenses don't come any better. That one does just about everything right.
