I disagree entirely.  The news lenses are excellent and Leica is to be
commended.  Those who wish for the old days are welcome to them.  Enjoy the
memories of a bygone time.  Today is good.  The old lenses were fine for their
time.  They are inferior to today's lenses.  Art should never be used as an
excuse for inferior quality.
