Theyzuns  were themuns....thosuns who wanted me nailed to a cross for 
suggesting filters on Leica glass. Probably the same ones who sell 
equipment listing "slight cleaning marks". ;-)     Actually, I've gotten 
to the point I'd like to have a Mamiya 7. One camera, one lens and the 
heck with all the rest. Problem with that is my scanner only does 35mm. 
I'm not about to buy one capable of 6x6 or 6x7. I am really cheap. 
Genearlly buy all my equipment used but the lenses new.

Walt (who loves ya too)
