When lenses were designed for B&W film, I guess there wasn't much tweaking for color. With color as the way to go later in the century, saturation was the way to go. And with that came contrast (which I can do without). Although I'm not a praticer of the Zone System, I would like to see all of those zones represented in an image. Right now, I'm pursuing the 35/2.8, which is more of a challenge than the 35/3.5.

Good performance for its time, still a very good lens, although obviously very different from present lenses in character. see: http://gallery.leica-users.org/album164/pathSt_Marthas200512 http://gallery.leica-users.org/album347/Blowingoutcandles Peter Dzwig Jeffery Smith wrote: > What is the consensus on this as a shooter? > > Jeffery Smith > New Orleans, LA > http://www.400tx.com > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Leica Users Group. > See http://leica-users.org/mailman/listinfo/lug for more information > > _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
