Dear fellow Hobbits (sorry Hobbyists)
The latest edition of Amateur Photographer has a review of the new
Voigtländer Color-Heliar 75/2.5. It will have various fits,
including OM, and its price in the UK is projected to be £300 - or
perhaps it's available already.
The lens has a fair proportion of chrome (or whatever the metal is)
and although it will be a solid piece of kit, it is small. I expect
that its performance, which was highly praised in AP, will be better
than the 85/2. Any reports elsewhere on this... and does it form
part of the addiction?
Unfortunately, I will not be buying it as my funds (or those
allocatable to the "Hobby") will not stretch that far. I am intent
on buying an ISDN modem (I know it doesn't modulate/demodulate, but
it serves a similar function) to speed up my connection.
