My number 1 choice on all my cameras

Now that I've had a few days to use and evaluate the lens both with outdoor subjects (and it's really cold being 16) as well as the more comfortable indoor photos. The quality of the lens is absolutely superb and razor-sharp at all apertures.

Astounded by other reviews - this lens is a gem.

Compact - check Sharp as a tack - check Short focusing throw - check Balanced on Leica M cameras - check Sharp wide open - check Ungodly sharp at f5.6-f8 - check 1/5 the cost of competitor - check I cannot relate to any review that doesn't give this lens five stars. Sharp as my summilux f1.4.
