I'm tagging on this last message in order to get help and also ask a
question.

Need Help:

I just ordered a 50mm Summicron f/2 Dual Range with eyes.  The lens came
with the eyes attached and in the close-focus position.  I can turn the
focusing ring in that mode OK, but I can't get the lens to go into the
normal focus range.   It won't pull out and turn back to the proper
position.  Do I first need to mount it on the camera in order to do
that?  Don't want to damage anything so any help will be appreciated.

Question:

I have now sent three e-mails to the group using the same address as
this one but none have appeared on my screen.  They just go into a dark
hole somewhere.  Do you have to be a list member for a certain period of
time before your e-mails to the list show up?


Thanks,

Ted Bayer
Olalla, Washington
