Anyone who has concerns about everything perfect within the framelines whos' shooting with an M and being right on the mark dead serious with a 21 or wider through a viewfinder attached to the hot shoe might as well forget absolute accuracy! Hell man it's a myth! An SLR is the only answer to that accuracy! Great answer Buzz for whomever "Fast_Primes" is. By the way Fast_Primes, if you'll excuse me, do you have a real name? I'm sure you're aware we on this LUG do correspond in real life names. Thank you. ted - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
