Re: something new
Godfrey, is the SLK 230 in addition to or a replacement for the Prius? I ask because I recently read an article that talked about hybrid owners replacing their hybrids with non hybrids and was surprised to hear that.

Apart from a very minor pinhole in the bellows (now fixed) and a dirty lens (now cleaned) the camera is in amazing shape for 75+ years. I've found that by stopping the Tessar down to F16 I get excellent sharpness and resolution. Not bad for a CA$40 camera off Ebay. But does it have matrix metering and will a digital back be available? :) Tom C.

I think they added matrix metering in 1928, and the digital back is due out next year :) I confess I'm not very impressed with the speed of the auto-focus on this either - I can wait for hours and it still doesn't focus !!!
