I showed the enlargements to my friends and ask them which one was Leica glass and they couldn't tell the difference... Alberto, You're not likely to notice differences under the conditions mentioned. Shoot both lenses wide open and enlarge to 16x20 and look again. The greatest variable in photography is the photographer, not our equipment. WE are the greatest limitation our cameras are up against. That's the magic of this art we all try to practice. David W.
