All the Leica M series range-finders in production since the late 50's have had mechanical parallax correction in the finders which is great. Unfortunately it still can't help with regard to absolute composition since the taking and viewing lenses are in different relative positions, the same as a TLR in effect. Bad for near/far wide angle compositions and impossible when you are trying to avoid point light sources :-( Cheers, Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://members.ozemail.com.au/~distudio/publications.html - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
