*** Yet, when you read Romy's post, you get the idea that Leica is farming out all of their lens production.I was not what I said. I said that Now Are the Times when the Mentioned Events become a reality. Hey, 10 years ago there were some high-end models of Japanese cars witch were made in Japan and some that were made in US… Give yourself another 10 years and you will see the Hasselblad's that are assembled in Afghanistan.
*** For a print of a wedding picture photographed on Kodak Portra film. Absolutely the WORST choice.
Just for fun: I used excessively Kodak Portra 400 for the negatives... only because it is the ONLY Kodak film which handle contrast at ~0.6 at 400 ASA with a standard possess. All the rest Kodak film require over-fry it for 1 stop...
*** So, there you have it - one product that's the best and worst - process/usage dependent.
Do not even go there with JJ. I had this argument with him somewhere at the beginning of this forum (it is still there ... severely edited). Be careful with him. He is a personal friend with Rod M and if anything you said would bring a shade/question to the JJ’s reputation/creditability your post will be deleted. So, be gentile with the unfortunate….
*** You know, Minolta makes some nice cameras too...
Actually Minolta GX-7’s old 50/1.8 was a stunningly good.
Regarding all the rest: we have to understand that all BS that we discuss has no practicaly no applied use and has value only for the theoretical interaction among inner-players …

Follow Ups:
that I disagree with what the other fellow said.Or with what you said at least in one note above. The camera should do what you expect it to do, so you can conciously decide on that basis.
Your continued insistance on fighting over your previous foolishness will only encourage others to look at your notes below, and realize the unreasonable nature you can sometimes exhibit.
It seems that you must ascribe every defeat you suffer to some kind misbehavior in others, and I am frankly tired of it. If you abandoned this behavior, I'm sure you'd find a lot more people willing to discuss life, the universe, and everything with you.
On another note, you're leaving photography? How come????
