But to suggest with a straight face that there is no "mantra" on the list regarding the importance of Leica glass really is pretty ridiculous. :-) -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+bdcolen=earthlink.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+bdcolen=earthlink.net@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Douglas Herr Sent: Friday, November 19, 2004 11:09 AM To: Leica Users Group Subject: RE: [Leica] FS: RF Coupled SLR lens to Leica M Adapters "B.

Hard to say for sure... but I wasn't aware the list had a mantra. It seems there are a lot of people who want to get the most use out of the equipment they have. I consider the camera body as important as the lens. Doug Herr Birdman of Sacramento http://www.wildlightphoto.com _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
