Subject: [Leica] 135mm 2.8 with eyes

The 135mm 2.8mm for the M cameras pull up the 90mm frame lines but the
eyes enlarge the image in them 50%, so it is correct for 135. You see
very little outside of the frame lines. This works fine on all the M
cameras. This is a big advantage with the 0.72 if you are using maximum
apertures. I have a 0.85 and with the eyes it is especially easy to
focus even wide open.
