Does Fuji built all the HC lenses, or Zeiss still makes the calculation of them?

Can you give me a link about these questions?

Thanks in advance.

Dear mister M,(no name ?),

I consider your words: "that's at least 10 times braver than you. all you do is whining in

front of a computer screen, so far i can see.'" as a personal attack.

You don't know me,my life, and so on...how can you speak like that?

I don't pass my time in front of a comptuter screen, I'm an artist, a professional

photographer and a filmaker, my films beeing broadcasted in all Europe, and buyed by

museums like Center Pompidou in Paris.

It's my right to not appreciate the work and the life of this Miss Chapelle.

I don't know you , but i'm sure that you are a little person.

Much ado about nothing....she is a mediocre photographer and a good U.S patriot and a

Woman! in this macho war photographers world!... this is sufficient for building a new one

million $ dime store hollywood legend.

Dear John,

in the Leica M7 brochure, from 2005 (not available yet...),they have exactly the

same words for describing the M7 as in page 38 of the new Leica M brochure, but they say

"the body is made of die-casted aluminium..."(and it's what Leica said since years for the

other cameras, M4, M6...).

In a Leica press information they write also for the issue of the MP in 2003:" The main

body and housing consist of light-weight but robust diecast aluminum".

In fact they speake about magnesium now ONLY because the M8 body is made of

magnesium...for not being in rest... As i know since the issue of the M8, the M7 and MP

don't change of weight...

Dear John,

for me the information in the Leica system brochure is false. Only the chassis of M8 is in

magnesium alloy. (in the same brochure, at the end "tecnical datas", they clearly indicate

magnesium for the M8, and "all metal body" for the M7/MP (in fact aluminium alloy).

I'm asking about the alloy used in the bodies of the M7 and MP, not the top and bottom

covers...

I know that for the body of the M8, Leica uses magnesium for the first time...and they

made some publicity around this fact,but it's a new technology (the die-casting of the

magnesium dates from a few years..), so do they use an alloy of aluminium for the M6,

M7, MP bodies...?

Leica says that they use now magnesium for the M8 bodies.

Someone knows what is the metal used for the MP and M7 bodies (die cast aluminium alloy?)

Thank you

Hello,

does someone knows if the ancient "historic" Leitz factory in Wetzlar still belongs to Leica (since

they left to Solms)? Is there some activity into ?

you have the "beast",Elcan 9Omm/f1 here:

http://auction.igavel.com

...and you can also buy it....

Does someone have used the Elcan 50 f/2, a four elements lens supplied for the US army

as the standard lens for the KE7A, military version of the M4 camera?

What are the results?

Also very fascinating ,the 66mm/f2 or the 90mm/f1 !

thank's for your answers.

I own an MP. Can someone give me a definitive answer ? When the shutter IS NOT

COCKED,and i'm not on B/Off position, if i press the shutter release, is there any power

consumption?

John Collier, testing this problem on a M6TTL (nemeng.com FAQ) said that even the

shutter wasn't cocked there is battery drain pressing on the shutter release.

thank's for your lights on this little question...

a few pictures of the french jazz band La Forge in rehearsal in Grenoble, taken with an MP,

cron 35 asph and tri X..

Yes, the french 餩tion, photos of M6 and MP pages 34/45/55/56/149 and a fashion

subject with a girl shooting with an M6 , by Mario Sorrenti, from page 221 to 230...

Just a little question about the original MP and MP3 design.. Why Leica , for a professional

camera, had chosen the"cheapest" M2 frame counter and not the M3 one's?

Elmar 50 2,8. It's small, light ans as good as my 35 cron Asph.
