It is not a Leica M, but it complements the M system very well. I find the 45 very sharp in the 24x 36 mode and a bit soft at the edge in the panorama mode (24x 65) at f4 and 5,6, very god after that. The 90 I have only had since November and I haven't had time to test it properly yet. Looks allright on the negs though. My personal feeling is that this is a highly attractive camera — the multi format function is not that important to me - I tend to leave it in panorama mode most of the time and use the M's for 24x36. I am eagerly awaiting the 35mm super wide lens for it. Try one if you have a chance — you too will be hooked on those wide views. Tom A
