Subject: Zone VI Meter Case

Greetings,

        For what it's worth - I was just going through my camera gear and
noticed that an M body without lens fits perfectly in a Zone VI meter case.
The case has a soft liner, padded, round the bottom plastic stiffner, fits
on your belt and the flap fastens with velcro.  The cases come in two sizes.
I have been using this case for my Pentax spot meter - US$25.  Zone VI was
bought out by Calumet.  Both of these companies are in the US.

        Today I printed some shots that I had made with the old 3.5cm
Summaron that I picked up in Singapore and my 50mm Summilux.  The results
were really quite pleasing for a lens that is around 39 years old - I'll
keep it.  Later I realised I was comaring it to a 50mm lens that was a mere
27 years old.  I have always been happy with the Summilux but how does it
rate against the newer models?
