I've said it before, I love my Zaftig DSLR. The images are loverly - great color. No plastic skin to be seen. With my 50mm summilux (a delight of a lens) and my 21-35mm zoom I'd be happy for the rest of my life. I agree with Mark that the 60mm is a must. But it has been shelved since my 50mm summilux arrived last year. just rambling, Eric On 2/8/07, Mark Rabiner <mark@rabinergroup.com> wrote: > On 2/8/07 3:00 PM, "Robert D.
