I thought Viso was Leica thing all this time having looked at the Leica catalogs for years since the 60's. I thought a catalog so amazingly varied like this was Leica only. Turns out Nikon, Canon and who knows who else all has reflex mechanisms and there were third party people turning them out. I'm not saying this like its new news. But I don't think everyone has absorbed it fully. Leica had all the microscope stuff in it the others didn't have though. They got past macro into the micro zone. That could be the big difference. mark@rabinergroup.com Mark William Rabiner > From: Vick Ko <vick.ko@sympatico.ca> > Reply-To: Leica Users Group <lug@leica-users.org> > Date: Sat, 02 Aug 2008 21:29:54 -0400 > To: Leica Users Group <lug@leica-users.org> > Subject: Re: [Leica] Leica visoflex > > Good to hear about your good fortunes, both photographically and with > your garden, Tina. > > Up here in wet Ottawa, my tomatoes are still green.
