But my main slant with it is for it to give me what i don't get from a rangefinder camera. Reflex: for macro and longer tele use. I'll probably start with the 65 Elmar and then get a 200 or longer lens. I love the thing already though glassless. I may try streaching aluminum foil over the front and doing pinhole pictures with it till I get glass. mark rabiner :) http://spokenword.to/rabiner/ http://people.oven.com/jbm/temp-displays/Mark_Rabiner/Marks_Zone_System.pdf
