Thanks. This would be most odd, as Ernst Leitz III seems to have hammered his optical staff ruthlessly to produce zoom lenses in the 1960's, but they were unable to do this at a cost which the declining Leitz fortune would allow. I'll have to ask Emil Keller about this. Marc msmall@roanoke.infi.net FAX: +540/343-7315 Cha robh bas fir gun ghras fir!
