For a somewhat technical description of lens design, and descriptions
(perhaps biased descriptions) of the signature (fingerprint) of Leica
lenses, I would recommend the Puts book.  It helps when choosing lenses,
and helps guide with questions such as "which version of Summicron is
best"?

Regards,

Listers,

I've gotten a lot of Borders gift cards for Christmas and want to  
know which Leica related books are worth buying.  As I mentioned, I  
received Osterloh's book as a gift and am finding it to be helpful.

Any other suggestions for Leica book purchases?  Erwin Puts "Leica  
Lens Compendium?"  Dennis Laney's "Leica Collector's Guide?"

TIA,

Ken
