Jerry,
All I asked is what is a TLR 50? Maybe using the TLR with 80mm as if
it were a 50mm on a 35mm camera?
Personally, I never cared for Leicas or the mystique about them. I
have never been comfortable using them. Hate the stupid way to load
film and could not live with the 1/50 sync speed. I much prefer SLRs.
Yes, there are a few exceptions for me. I use a few inexpensive
rangefinders like the Olympus XA or an old Yashica Lynx with a very
sharp 50mm F1.4 lens, and also on ocassion a Rolleikin in my TLR.
Aside that, I rarely use anything but SLRs for 35mm.
