Somewhere down the | line you may need that definitive focus plane. Just one man's opinion. This has to rank with one of the most meaningless statements I have ever seen on the LUG or any other camera newsgroup. Since the plane of focus is by definition the film plane, groundglass, sensor plane, etc...what does this statement have to do with anything meaningful? Are you saying the concept of hyperfocal focus is nonsense? Your posts are becoming increasingly irrational. I you want to talk about anything, email me or I can usually be found on IRC newnet #leica.
