Ah, the mythology of legends... ;-) I just dug out a couple magazine mentions of the M 35/1.4 that was shown at the 1980 Photokina: "A 35mm f/1.4 with floating element for better closeup performance, focusing to 1.3 ft." [and] "Very fast moderate wide-angle lens. Speed is the key to this 10-element, eight-group K-mount wide-angle lens. The only other data available are minimum aperture (f/22), close-focus distance (0.4 m), weight (420 g), and filter size (58-mm)." <sigh...> <drool...> Fred
