It looks like a gorgeous lens!
NOT a MONSTER! Well balanced.
- a lens many will have on their cameras most of the time. To give their
M8's a 24mm lens!
But smaller than my 24 Elmarit it certainly looks like to me.
That's a nice switch to shoot wide angle cropped format with a smaller not
larger lens!

Slow glass rules!

A whole line of f4's or 3.5's would be excellent in these tight times I'll
say again.
Cheaper glass yet in many or most cases BETTER IMAGING than the new line of
near Noctili which have exploded onto the empty pocketed scene.
