[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]Nathan I find focusing the main problem when I use Leica glass on my 300D. The stop down metering I can live with, but the dim viewfinder is a bit of pain. Regarding lenses. So far I have the 18-55 that came with the camera (rather soft wide open), 28mm f2.8, 50mm f1.8 (both very good) and a 70-300 zoom (not the best in the world). The two primes are in a different league to the zooms - I'll have to dip my toes into the world of 'L' glass sometime :-) One thing about using an SLR again is that it reminds me what I like so much about using a rangefinder.

Some people say it is no problem, others say it is a major PITA, so I will just have to find out for myself. Nathan
