[LRflex] Re: Angenieux lenses for Leica R mount

Hi,

I have all the ones that were made in Leica R mount: 2.5/45-90 2.3/35-70
3.5/70-210 and 2.3/180 Apo.

I am very satisfied with the 70-210, which I have had for some time and used
mainly on the R9+DMR. You can see some of the pictures I took with it on
my web site, http://www.leicaphoto.net/discus/messages/7/7.html?1130732384.
The following were made with Angenieux lenses:

- Sunrise on the Abtsee
- Comparison 35-70 lenses
- Salzburg Roofs on a Rainy Afternoon
- Hellbrunn Castle 2

Best regards
Peter Werner
