Hi Eric, I am kicking myself you know where for not buying your Pre-ASPH 35 cron! It is a nice light lens. Any suggestions where I could get one? Thanks. BTW have you decided to get an R6.2? I have seen a few good buys around for them. Let me know if you want more info. Cheers!

Hi, Eric. After checking the Filterview Web page, I see the adapters sizes you sell are not the same as theirs. Actually, my question is: do you have the 77/46 adapter? I have a M, and I have a Contax G2, that's why I ask. Also, how exactly does Filterview work. I don't get it from their page. I have the Leica flip-up polarizer. Is Filterview based on the same principle? Thank you.

John,

I didn't make my mind up yet as what to get next. If you are up for a bargain I'd suggest you contact postbus@wimgroot.demon.nl, he has a mint M3 with 50 cron and 90 elmarit for sale (asking 1400 euro!).

Olivier,

I guess I made a typo. The Filterview is exactly as described as on the webpage. The principle of the filterview is based on the fact that the filter size is larger than the lens. Because the adapter has "holes" in it, one is able to actually look through the filter when using the viewfinder on a RF. So just like with a SLR one can see the result of the filter! It is made of metal and I'd say it almost matches Leica quality.
