Technical limitation? quote from luminous landscape But - Why Not Rangefinder Coupled?<<<< Leo, Maybe it's considered with a 15mm lens the depth of field is so great one hardly requires focusing? And it can be flown by guess and by God because the focus point will be covered due to the great depth. Although I'm sure there'll be some very technical answer to the question. However, I've used a 15 on both M6 & 7 and M8 without any thought of focusing. Simply because it wasn't possible. I looked at depth of field scale on lens and, "OK everything's covered hurry up and shoot the damn picture before it's gone!" That's it, click! ted
