beoon Posted January 4, 2009 Share #1 Posted January 4, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) I have just bought an ex demo WATE from a Leica Dealer. There is also one advertised on this forum for sale and when I looked at its post I see there is a warning label wrapped around the lens barrel. Mine did not come with this label, can someone tell me what the warning label says please? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine did not come with this label, can someone tell me what the warning label says please? The warning label, if I remember well, points out that you should not put the lens upside down on a table without the sunshade. The frontlens considerably protrudes beyond the lens-rim, the reason also why that is red. Congratulations with the purchase of this lens. It is not the most efficient to handle but its I(mage) Q(uality) is truly excellent. Read Reid Reviews. The use of a Milch adapter, fitting a UV/IR filter behind the shade, is strongly advised.

rwfreund Posted January 4, 2009 Share #3 Posted January 4, 2009 DO NOT PLACE THE LENS DOWN ON ITS FRONT ELEMENT WITHOUT THE LENS HOOD ATTACHED SINCE THE FRONT ELEMENT PROTRUDES BEYOND THE THREADED ATTACHMENT RING. Or something to that effect. -bob Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
