I agree; but I've been saying I've been wishing the new lens line concept
was not a near fast compromise.
But a solid slow compact lens designers dream f4.
We rangefinder people we don't need monster glass to be able to see to
focus.
And a slow line
Is what Leica has always been about.

More to the point a distinctively
SLOW
MEDIUM and 
FAST  lines for each price point.

The old catalogs all had that.
