Thanks all. My point in showing this was essentially that having the Leica
glass capable of exquisite f/1 or f/1.4 is unique and allows not only more
creativity but unique and engaging images. Not that you can't get unique
and engaging images with other glass, but you get this extra with Leica IMO.
Best,
Bob
