Have any of you had a similar experience?  Is it just that the AE system in
my head is smarter than the Canon's or have you noted that the Leica M
lenses seem to produce richer, more saturated colors?

It's the lenses.  R lenses do that too.  My first roll of K64 made with the
400mm f/6.8 Telyt was a shock.  I suddenly wanted dump 10 years worth of
photos made with N**** glass and was eagerly anticipating the photos I
would make with the Telyt.
