Subject: [Leica] Flare machines: 5cm Summar v Canon 1.2

Aside from the difference in speed, has anyone noticed a huge difference
in the way these two perform?  I have both, and I have observed that at f/2,
both have quite a bit of flare.  I would give the edge to Canon on subject 
isolation, standard filter size, and standard apertures, but the prewar 
Summar is a pretty lens in the negs...
