Of course they would! So I propose to shut this thread for once and all,
and continue with the usuall ones praising each other's equipment (have I
told you the one about how I got that grainless tak-sharp sofa-sized
enlargement from my Box Brownie and TMZ @ 12500 iso) ;-)
OTOH, I quite understand the concerns of longevity. Short-term life bodies
are standard now, as a result of MNCs and Consumerism thinking, but a
thought that same would be lenses, even if cased in good metal, is not
nice. Need to grab 70 years-old-still-working TLR to get comfort...
