Subject: [Leica] IMG: Same Lens, Different Camera

Shooting young baseball players in action, through a chain link fence, 
in the late afternoon shadows, is challenging.  I've concluded that, for 
me, the Leica Summicron-R 50mm lens works best. But, with the E-1, the 
shadows have proved challenging.  Yesterday, I paired up the lens with 
my Fuji X-E1.  The crop factor gives a little more field of view, and 
the sensor works better in the shadows.  This time, I failed to capture 
the ball itself. :-(
But, I liked the action, anyway.
