Perhaps that's why the candles look blown out? It is weird looking though. The 85mm wide open and the 75mm wide open as going to produce different results. Automatic White Balance looks fine with the Canon but not with the Leica. Though we all know "automatic" does not work well on everything. My worthless 2 cents anyway.
