Can we add stuff to the site Attila? There's a manual missing at the moment which I could upload, plus some pics.

Attila, I found another really useful site in the Wayback machine:
Robert Monaghan's Cult Classics in Third Party Lenses. It's a huge amount of information.

Indeed, long time ago dead site, it was already gone before mflenses.com was born. I am not sure we can recover it.

If anyone finds a problem with the recovered site please post up. I will do my best to get the information over to Attila.

Do you have energy to restore what Peter did suggest ?
