Datta, one of the issues is that there is no speed higher than 1/300 sec. I had to stop down to f/16 in order to have right EV combination. I will need to use slower film in order to make this work right. This image would be better (sharper still) with reduced DOF. Thanks for the observation. I am also looking at a FED 5C and a Bessa R for some of those lovely C/V screwmount lenses.

Good shot, Luke.

Voigtlander make good cameras and lenses. A professional photographer- a friend - has a Leica body and Voigtlander lenses, and he claims these lenses are excellent. Another person I know who is a street photographer and uses voigtlander rangefinder camera for the street work.

Datta.

Only had it a couple weeks, Christy. It is another little camera to keep in my briefcase along with the XA that I have. I love the color and sharpness so far. Luke
