Robert did suggest a M6 with a Noctilux, but my thought process is that the M6 w/ Noctilux and another M6 with a 35 Summilux will be my primary rigs and a R8 w/ 180/2 APO would be on my sholder for when that candid happened a bit too far for the Noctilux to reach. The nice thing about the 180 is that you don't have to be in the kids face to get a nice tight shot. I am only wondering if the extra size of the f/2 is going to require a faster shutter speed the the lighter f/2.8. Sam - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
