Took me about three minutes. But then I'm not the former Canadian Leica
Importer, and I claim NO knowledge of camera repair or engineering of any
sort.

Lea,

I talked to Kinderman Leica a few years ago about this and they said it
would be physically possible but to their knoweldge no one had actually
performed such a thing before.  Their suggestion was to sell the 50 and buy
the previous version with focus tab and detachable hood.

I got such great answers to my camera magnification question yesterday that
I thought I'd ask another today...

Is is possible to put one of those little focusing tab dealies (not the
official name, I realize) on a 50mm lens? There's one on my 35mm and I love
it. Didn't know if it was an optional accessory of if I'm out of my mind.

I'd say don't laugh at me but I know SOME members would do it anyway, so I
won't even bother............ :o)
