I'll like to see your comments and your experiences. I'll like to know if anyone has made a test in which you compare the Leica 24mm and the Canon 24mm. Autofocus? I made a comparison between the Leica 21mm. 2.8 and the Canon 20-35 2.8 and set it at 21mm. to cover the same area as the Leica. I made an exposure of the same subject under the same circumstances, same film, Tri-X, exposed and developed identically and made enlargement to 5x7 and 8x10. I showed the enlargements to my friends and ask them which one was Leica glass and they couldn't tell the difference. I didn't noticed the difference in the print contrast nor resolution to justify the price difference. Photographically, Alberto
