Never found it as good as film in a DDS, seemed less flat and cost significantly more.... john ________________________________________ The end of pack film was the beginning of the end. I never got to use the stuff. And my speed graphic was never that useable. I have the standard 127 mm 4.7 Kodak Ektar lens on it. But the thing as always out of alignment somehow. Hand held sheet film that's a dream. For my baby Speed (medium format) I have the also I think standard 101mm Graphex Optar lens. My all time dream camera is the Linhof Master Technika 4x5 Rangefinder sheet Film Camera. -- Mark R. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/lugalrabs/ > From: Jim Nichols <jhnichols at lighttube.net> > Reply-To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Date: Tue, 20 Sep 2011 00:05:14 -0500 > To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Subject: Re: [Leica] Dear Nikon > > Yes, it was a sincere thanks. > > I don't know much about Zeiss lenses.
