Hi Again. Regarding "feel" of Contax 85mm/f1.4 I did not mean physical (lens on body is a very heavy brick ... a huge part of my interest in rangefinders). I meant the "feel", I think you guys call it "glow", of the images it produces. Its similar to my old 150mm blad lens, both Zeiss so I guess some commonality should be expected.
I recently got an m6 so I guess I'll have to learn to deal with the small frame lines.
I have had a Fed 2 and Fed 3 for a which and do have one of those Russian universal turret finders which I find quite useful. Maybe I'll try this if I find the M6 90mm lines difficult.
Thanks again to all for comments on the Leica 90mm f2 and f2.8. Given feedback, have convinced myself to try recent pre-ASPH 90mm f2. I figure the worst case scenario is I don't like it and sell it for close to what I payed (and consider any loss simply a rental fee).
