Hi George,

I've mounted again the Visoflex on the M8 at home and compared mounted  
on the M3. On the M3 the screw to press the shutter drops exactly on  
the middle of the shutter button, on the M8 is separated about 2 mm. I  
have the impression that Visoflex mounted on M8 is more separated from  
the bodt than on a M, and this can produce the focusing problem.

I can't understand neither, my Visoflex with the 65/3,5 and the 200/4  
worked perfectly on the M's.

.....??

Anyway, thank you very much for your message, this helps to find where  
is the mystery...

Cheers
Lluis
