[Leica] Thanks Howard! Re: The Battle of the 50mm 1.4's

Thanks Howard!?The Nikon D700 is something else. I recall as a kid with a 
Nikkormat and 50 f/2.0 using a tripod in the cold for moonlit shots at 
midnight, with star tracks and all. Here - you can almost read the 
weathervane's 'rotor housing' or whatever it's called! I hope Leica is able 
to come to a good compromise between pixel size and number if and when the 
R10 hits the shelves. I am constantly amazed at how this D700 performs, and 
I like it much more than the new Canon 5D which has?more megapixels overall. 

No - not giving up he Leicas; But this shows that there is a place for a 
'few' system cameras in everyone's arsenal. 

But that Sigma 50mm! That looks like a Noctilux on Steroids!
