Like this (again?) (http://wind.winona.edu/~stafford/s) Going through the Big Bin I found one just like it that I mocked up with a rise and falling front mount. Next Winter I think I'll build it for real. The traditional 47mm SA seems to have build problems - inconsistency. Mine is the F5.6 and it's not as contasty as I'd like, but I'm comparing it to a couple of phenonemal lenses. How we spoil ourselves. :) I'm working on a very new WA camera right now. All glass and stainless. At this time I'm in dire need of a machinist. Bummer. _______________________________________________ Cameramakers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://rmp.opusis.com/mailman/listinfo/cameramakers
