[Leica] Nathan's PAD 22/3/2010: Leica at the Chandos

[hlritter at bex.net (Howard Ritter)]

Don't underestimate the astuteness of your unconscious, Nathan. Obviously 
you were referring to the fact that the LENS is a SM, mated to the M2 by way 
of an adapter.

Incidentally, this echoes my very first Leica, an M2X (no self-timer) 
wearing a collapsible SM Canon 50/2...um...'Canonar'...can't remember the 
name of the lens, though the Canon 90 that I also had was a Serenar. Odd 
that I remember that, as I've never seen one since selling it ca. 1968. 
Anyone?
