But one thing is for sure: from all Leitz-Leica instruments I have investigated Leica never was at the front line of high transmissions as compared to other top producers and I suspect that this will also be the case for the plus-models. That does not mean that they do not make solid and beautiful instruments, but you obviously can not or do not want to have everything.Gijs</blockquote>
