as usual with cameras one is always looking to see what else is out there it always seem to happen when you have just bought a new camera, my case a Leica D-Lux 5 excellent by the way but......it has the same same method of shooting arms extended and no eye composition unless you have an external viewfinder, at the same time i resurrected my Dads old Contax IIIA bought new in 55 with a zeiss 21 biogon and 50 f2 all in excellent condition also have the zeiss turret finder which work great on the epson with the 15 CV because it goes from 21 to 135. using the epson for the first week is a joy, simple focus and press the shutter, really like the analog at the top and the best part you can hide the screen and just get on with taking photos, with the 15mm the first thing i noticed is how good the colout looked and the the overall photo doesn't seem to have the digital look... softer and more film like, when you run the images through lightroom the adjustments seem to have more latitude, looking forward to getting an adapter to use the zeiss lenses. the Amedeo adapter appears to be the better choice, i was also the one who posted about the SEI photometer last week still looking for anyone who has one i can ask some questions about it:)
