>Nice.  Looks like you must have stuck the Summilux in a drawer.  The

>paints a nice image for you.

Sonny --

Yes, the Summilux is way back on the back burner at the moment, The
Sonnetar (like all MS Optical lenses) is quirky and far from perfect
ergonomically. I just bought a Zeiss 21mm Biogon originally in the Contax G
mount that MS Optical converted to M mount -- it is even MORE funky and
awkward.

But these imperfections make the lenses all that much more fun to use and
there is no denying the image quality.

The Summilux may be appearing on the market one day soon.
