Iıd highly recommend that anyone using Leica rangefinders focus test every lens and body combinaton. As Iıve been missing some focus lately;Iıve tested all four lenses (28, 35, 50, 75) on two bodies and found that each lens focuses at a dfferent point on each body and in no case does the focus hit the mark intended by the rangefinder. So neither body is currently set correctly. Nor are any of the lenses. So everythingıs off to Don Goldberg. Bumminı
